Miss Sweeney is a bonus track on the deluxe version of Weezer's 2008 self-titled album, called The Red Album.
In this song, the protagonist explains how he – a manager in an office – has fallen in love with his assistant, but knows it's inappropriate.
The verses of this song are spoke-sung, with a...
[Verse 1]
Hi, hello, Miss Sweeney, could you please come in my office for a second?
I'm headin' home for the day and I thought it'd be good for you and me to check in
I met with a gal from expo and they do have the "slab" cabinets in white
She thinks we can take measurements down at the site
[Pre-Chorus 1]
If we do that we'll be just fine, Miss Sweeney
That's all I got to say to you at this time, Miss Sweeney
Actually, there's one other thing on my mind
[Chorus]
Girl, you make the rainclouds disappear
The sun always shines when you're near
I'm waiting, until you love me
Sweeney
[Verse 2]
I'm so sorry, Miss Sweeney, I don't know where that came from
I think I was overcome by a spontaneous emotion
Anyway, the cash deposit of five thousand dollars
Will need to be sent to the property owner tomorrow
[Pre-Chorus 2]
If there are any problems with the deposit or contract, don't be afraid to holler
I don't wanna have to approve each stinkin' dollar that we borrow
Ah, forget it!
[Chorus]
Miss Sweeney
Girl, you make the rainclouds disappear
The sun always shines when you're near
I'm waiting, until you love me
[Bridge]
Miss Sweeney, I got to admit the truth
I am totally head-over-heels in love with you
Everyday you come to the office lookin' fine
Navy business suit clingin' tightly to your spine
You ask me if I'm ready to get down to work
Sweeney, baby, I'm ready, be my...
[Chorus]
Girl, you make the rainclouds disappear
The sun always shines when you're near
I'm waiting, until you love me...
[Outro]
Girl, you light the skies of my life
I swear, I will make you my wife
I'm waiting, until you love me

According to Brian Bell in the Red Album deluxe edition liner notes:
I’m really happy about the inclusion of ‘Miss Sweeney’ on the deluxe edition of The Red Album. This song has always been a favorite of mine since Rivers first sent the acoustic demo of his songs for Album Six. I fought and fought...
