Prince Creep Lyrics

Now I've seen you before

Couldn't look you in the eye

You're just like an angel

Your skin makes you cry

You float like a feather

This beautiful world

You wish you were special

But you're a ...

You're a weirdo

What are you doing here?

You don't belong here

You don't care if it hurts

You just wanna have control

You want a perfect body

You want a perfect soul

You want me to notice (yes you do)

when you're not around

I wish you were special (yes I do)

'Cause I think you're special

Maybe I'm just a ...

(unintelligible)

What are we doing here?

We don't belong here

(vocalizing)
