Robert Smith
I want to tell lies to your Mum and Dad
I want them to think I'm fun
I want all your friends to talk about me
When I'm not there to tell the truth
I wanna be goth and I wanna be pop
And I want you to notice it
I wanna wear black with sequins up the back
I wanna be like Robert Smith
I need to know what you think of me
Can I convince you I'm interesting?
I need to know what you're thinking
I need to know what you're thinking
I want your ex to be scared of me
Want me, watch me, turn you down
Wanna wear a loose fit, bright red lipstick, confuse your sexuality
Tell Morrissey he's become everything he told us not to be
I wanna be like Robert Smith
I need to know what you think of me
Can I convince you I'm interesting?
I need to know what you're thinking
I need to know, now
All I want to be, is what you wanna see, live on TV
I wanna wear some new expensive shoes
I wanna overdress for you
I wanna be that bitch
God I wanna be
Just like Robert Smith
When you look at me
Make you clench your teeth
I need to know what you think of me
Can I convince you I'm interesting?
I want them to think I'm fun
I want all your friends to talk about me
When I'm not there to tell the truth
I wanna be goth and I wanna be pop
And I want you to notice it
I wanna wear black with sequins up the back
I wanna be like Robert Smith
I need to know what you think of me
Can I convince you I'm interesting?
I need to know what you're thinking
I need to know what you're thinking
I want your ex to be scared of me
Want me, watch me, turn you down
Wanna wear a loose fit, bright red lipstick, confuse your sexuality
Tell Morrissey he's become everything he told us not to be
I wanna be like Robert Smith
I need to know what you think of me
Can I convince you I'm interesting?
I need to know what you're thinking
I need to know, now
All I want to be, is what you wanna see, live on TV
I wanna wear some new expensive shoes
I wanna overdress for you
I wanna be that bitch
God I wanna be
Just like Robert Smith
When you look at me
Make you clench your teeth
I need to know what you think of me
Can I convince you I'm interesting?
