Crush With Eyeliner - Live In Chicago / 1995

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 am 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

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

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
And 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
