Crush With Eyeliner — текст песни (R.E.M.)

(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)



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 - the pressure
She`s all that I can take
What position should I wear?
Cop an attitude? (you fake her)
How can I convince her? (fake her)
That I`m invented 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)
That gets me in the throat
What can I make myself be?
Life is strange, yeah (life is strange)
What can I make myself be? (fake her)
To make her mine?

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

I am smitten
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
