Santana (New Directions Girls):
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
And I think of all the things, what you're doin'
And in my head I paint a picture (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)

'Cause since I've come on home (Aaahh, aahh)
Well, my body's been a mess (Aaahh, aahh)
And I've missed your ginger hair (Aaahh, aahh)
And the way you like to dress

Santana with New Directions:
Won't you come on over?
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?

Santana (New Directions):
(Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa) Valerie-e-e (Why don't you come on over?)
(Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa) Va-a-lerie yeah (Valerie, Valerie)
(Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa) Valerie-e-e (Why don't you come on over?)

Santana (New Directions Girls):
Did you have to go to jail
Put your house on up for sale
Did you get a good lawyer-e-er? (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh) (New Directions: Lawyer-e-er)

I hope you didn't catch a tan (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
I hope you find the right man who'll fix it for you (New Directions: Who'll fix it for you)
Now are you shopping anywhere (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
Changed the color of your hair (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
And are you busy? (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh) (New Directions: Are you busy?)
And did you have to pay that fine (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
That you were dodging all the time (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
Are you still dizzy-y-y? (New Directions: Are you still dizzy, dizzy, dizzy?)

Santana:
Since I've come on home (Aaahh, aahh)
Well my body's been a mess (Aaahh, aahh)
And I've missed your ginger hair (Aaahh, aahh)
And the way you like to dress

Santana with New Directions:
Won't you come on over
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?

Santana (New Directions):
(Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa) Valerie-e-e (Why don't you come on over?)
(Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa) Va-a-lerie yeah (Valerie Valerie)

Santana (New Directions Girls):
Well, sometimes I go out by myself (Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-uh)
And I look across the water (Uh-uh)

And in my head I paint a picture...... (Uh-uh)

'Cause since I've come on home (Aaahh, aahh)
Well, my body's been a mess (Aaahh, aahh)
And I've missed your ginger hair (Aaahh, aahh)

Mistakes[]

  • While Santana is singing into the microphone and the guys are doing their choreography, you can see a cameraman on the side filming the girls while performing (possibly) another part of the song.
  • In the very beginning, we see Artie and behind him Mercedes and Quinn. Quinn has her arms behind her back. But in the next shot, we see Quinn from behind and suddenly her arm is up to her side, moving to the beat.
