"Crush With Eyeliner"


I know you
I know you've seen her
She's a sad tomato
She's three miles of bad road
Walking down the street
Will I never meet her?
She's a real woman-child
Oh, my kiss breath turpentine

I am smitten
I'm the real thing (I'm the real thing)
Have you seen her come around?
My crush with eyeliner

I'm in like.
I'm infatuated.
It's all too much pressure.
She's all that I can take
What position should I wear?
Cop an attitude? (Faker)
How can I convince her? (Faker)
That I'm inventive too, yeah

I am smitten
I'm the real thing (I'm the real thing)
We all invent ourselves
And, uh, you know me

Yeah,
She's a sad tomato
She's three miles of bad road
She's her own invention (She's her own invention)
Uh, that gets me in the throat
What can I make myself be?
Uh, life is strange, (yeah, life is strange)
What can I make myself be (Faker)
To make her mine?

I am smitten
I'll do anything (I'll do anything)
My kiss breath turpentine,
My crush with eyeliner

I am smitten
Uh, you know me (Yeah, you know me)
I could be your Frankenstein
My crush with eyeliner

I am smitten
I'm the real thing (I'm the real thing)
Won't you be my valentine?
My crush with eyeliner
