Man Crush

[Verse 1] Back in ninety three, when I was still young Alicia on the screen and my heart came undone The Crush did a number, hit me like a truck Then Clueless rolled around and I was permanently stuck [Pre-Chorus] She's the standard, she's the reason, she's the blueprint, she's the proof — That part of me's been settled, I've got nothing to prove [Chorus] But — I Love You, Man — Paul, you're the guy Not a thing to figure out, not a thing to clarify Call me Tim Robinson, hand on my heart Just need a little Friendship — Paul, where do we start? [Verse 2] Alicia's got a permanent room in my head But Paul, you're the voice in the kitchen, in the car, in the thread Not The Crush kind of crush, not the racing-pulse kind — The "I'd cancel my whole week for a hang" state of mind [Pre-Chorus] It's a different frequency, a different kind of fuse The crush on her is wiring, the crush on you is news [Chorus] But — I Love You, Man — Paul, you're the guy Not a thing to figure out, not a thing to clarify Call me Tim Robinson, hand on my heart Just need a little Friendship — Paul, where do we start? [Bridge — deadpan, sparse arrangement] I'm not weird about it. I'm normal about it. People did name you Sexiest Man Alive. Twenty twenty-one. I'm just mentioning it. As context. I would, however, drive to your house. Sit on the porch. Wait a respectful amount. One beer. One nod. One unspoken pact. Paul. I'm just saying. Think about that. [Final Chorus — full arrangement] I Love You, Man — Paul, you're the guy Alicia's forever but you're the other side Call me Tim Robinson, swear I'm sincere Just a little Friendship, Paul — I'll meet you anywhere
