Eugene

Yeah
I had a dream we kissed
And it was all amethyst
The underpart of your eyes was violet
You hung a cigarette between your purple lips
We've been best buds since thirteen
I hold your head back when you're too lean
I hold the Taco Bell and you cried over Eugene
He was mean, he was mean
Hey
I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
I kinda fell half in love and you're to blame
I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say
Hey
I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
I kinda fell half in love and you're to blame
I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say
Yo
Yeah
Seein' you with him burns
I feel it deep in my throat
You put your hands in his shirt
You play him records I showed you
You read him Sylvia Plath
I thought that was our thing
You know I like you like that
I hate that son of a bitch
We've been best buds since thirteen
But that don't change the things I feel
Oh, when I see you smile with your teeth at Eugene
Yeah, I can't deal
Hey (yo)
I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
(Yeah) I kinda fell half in love and you're to blame
(Yo) I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say
Hey
I know I've been a little bit off and that's my mistake
(Yeah) I kinda fell half in love and you're to blame
(Yo) I guess I just forgot that we've been mates since day
Yeah, I don't know what to say (yep)
Yo
Yo
