Another one by Luna, from 'Sideshow by the Seashore':
Then I painted your face/On a twenty dollar bill/But it isn't legal tender/And I think about you still

I think A Night In Tunisia might possibly be bad lyrics, but how come it lifts my spirits so much? Some aberration there that needs sorting out.

"Thinkin Bout You" by Frank Ocean: an all-time classic slow jam, which makes an unrequited crush sound like some kind of communion with the divine. The falsetto is other-worldly. But every time i hear it, i wish he'd just left out the second verse:
No, I don't like you, I just thought you were cool enough to kick itGot a beach house I could sell you in IdahoSince you think I don't love you, I just thought you were cuteThat's why I kissed youGot a fighter jet, I don't get to fly it though, I'm lying down
Actually the first verse is pretty dodgy too. It was like an act of intentional self-sabotage.
