El Scorcho (acoustic) Lyrics

Goddamn you half-Japanese girls
Do it to me every time
Oh, the redhead said you shred the cello
And I'm jello, babyBut you won't talk, won't look, won't think of me
I'm the epitome of public enemy
Why you wanna go and do me like that?
Come down on the street and dance with meI'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for meI asked you to go to the Green Day concert
You said you never heard of them
(How cool is that?)
How cool is that?
so why wont you go with meSo I went to your room and read your diary
Watching Grunge Leg-drop New Jack through a press table
And then my heart stopped
Listening to Cio-Cio San, fall in love all over againI'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for meHow stupid is it? I can't talk about it
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my heart
How stupid is it? Won't you gimme a minute

Just come up to me and say hello to my heartHow stupid is it? For all I know you want me too
And maybe you just don't know what to do
Or maybe you're scared to say
"I'm falling for you"I wish I could get my head out of the sand
'Cause I think we'd make a good team
And you would keep my fingernails clean
But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize
'Cause I can't even look in your eyes without shaking and I ain't faking
I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the baconI'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for meI'm a lot like you
I'm a lot like you
I'm a lot like you
And I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
