Crush'd Lyrics

When I was eight years old<br />
Before puberty took hold<br />
I thought I'd end up beside a princess bride<br />
And love was indivisible<br />
<br />
Never mind how my taste reflects<br />
A disturbing oedipal complex<br />
It's not awkward, girl<br />
The compliments are coming next<br />
<br />
You're no witch, you're no wench<br />
You're like Bjork with better fashion sense<br />
So I phone 50 Cents<br />
And I'm building up my confidence<br />
<br />
Respect to your work<br />
You're an artist, I'm a silly jerk<br />
I think that dynamic could work<br />
So work it<br />
<br />
I have a total crush on you, baby<br />
And I can't let it go, oh no<br />
I have a total crush on you, baby<br />
Baby, if only I could let you know<br />
<br />
When we spoke, no joke<br />
I started shedding slutty girls like snakeskin<br />
My collection acquired<br />
Through shallow misdirection<br />
<br />
And as I drive tonight<br />
The West Coast sky daring me to try<br />
I feel alive tonight<br />
The possibility that I'm your guy<br />
<br />
Though I suffer from dyslexia<br />
And mild manorexia<br />
My hair cannot commit<br />
To one popular genre of music<br />
<br />

And though they all claim<br />
That a girl can't take her boy's last name<br />
Or end up divorced and estranged<br />
I'm counting on you<br />
<br />
I have a total crush on you, baby<br />
And I can't let it go, oh no<br />
I have a total crush on you, baby<br />
Baby, if only I could let you know<br />
<br />
Your other suitors are no poets<br />
They're only actors who can play guitar<br />
Have I won your heart?<br />
<br />
They're not students or screenwriters<br />
They're only models that they taught to read<br />
Love, would you agree?<br />
And it's oh so sweet<br />
<br />
I have a total crush on you, baby<br />
And I can't let it go, oh no<br />
I have a total crush on you, baby<br />
Baby, if only I could let you know<br />
<br />
I'm quite sure you love me, Sherri<br />
I'm quite sure I love you too<br />
We should make a verbal agreement<br />
To only kiss each other<br />
<br />
Because one time beneath the sky<br />
Outside my New York pigsty<br />
I saw a vision of you and I, alright<br />
<br />
Did it hurt? Did it hurt?<br />
Did it hurt when you fell from heaven, girl?<br />
Did it hurt? Did it hurt?<br />
Did it hurt when you fell from heaven, girl?<br />
<br />
Did it hurt? Did it hurt?

When I was eight years old<br />
Before puberty took hold<br />
I thought I'd end up beside a princess bride<br />
