REM in their original (college-) line-up: Michael Stipe (vocals), Peter Buck (guitar), Mike Mills (bass), and Bill Berry (drums) - "Crush With Eyeliner" - Live @ the Reunion Arena - Dallas, Texas, USA - 19 Sept., 1995 What can I say...? The best band in the history of modern music with one of their all time best songs... From "Monster", their most disregarded CD... What a shame, what a fantastic song...! Bill Berry still on drums. No sign of any depression yet...!! The Lyrics: 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'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 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 You know me (Yeah, you know me) I could be your Frankenstein My crush ...
