Standard (EADGBE)
When I was 8 years old
Before puberty took hold
I thought I
would end up beside a princess bride
And love was indivisible
Never mind how my taste reflects
A disturbing Oedipus complex
It's not awkward girl
The compliments are coming next
You're no witch, you're no wench,
You're like Bjork with better fashion sense
A phone, 50 cents, and I'm building up my confidence
Respect to your work, you're an artist,
I'm a silly jerk
I think that I knew we could work
-
I have a total crush on you, baby
And I can't let it go, oh no
I have a total crush on you baby, baby!
If only I could let you know
We spoke no joke
I started shedding slutty girls
Like snake skin, my collection
Acquired through shallow misdirection
And as I drive tonight
West coast sky
Daring me to try
I feel alive tonight
Possibility, that I'm your guy
Though I suffer from dyslexia,
Mild manorexia
And my hair cannot commit
To one popular genre of music
And though they all claim,
That a girl can't take a boy's last name
Or end up divorced and estranged
I'm counting on you
-
I have a total crush on you, baby
And I can't let it go, oh no
I have a total crush on you baby, baby!
If only I could
- -
Your other suitors are no poets
They're only actors who can play guitar
Have I won your heart?
They're not students or screenwriters
They're only models that they taught to be
Love would you agree?
-
I have a total crush on you, baby
And I can't let it go, oh no
I have a total crush on you baby, baby!
If only I could
- -
Quite sure you love me, Sherri
Quite sure I love you too
We should make a formal agreement only to kiss each other
Cause one time, beneath the sky, outside my new york pigsty
I saw a vision of you and I! haha!
