Crush With Eyeliner Remix by R.E.M. Lyrics

[Intro]
La la la la la
La

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
I am smitten
I'm the real thing
(I'm the real thing)
Have you seen her come around?
My crush with eyeliner
[Verse 2]
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?
(You faker)
How can I convince her?
(Faker)
That I'm invented, too, yeah

[Chorus]
I am smitten
I'm the real thing
(I'm the real thing)
We all invent ourselves
And you know me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
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?
[Chorus]
I am smitten
I'll do anything
(I'll do anything)
Oh my kiss breath turpentine
My crush with eyeliner

[Chorus]
I am smitten
You know me
(Yeah, you know me)
I could be your Frankenstein
My crush with eyeliner

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