"The New Teller" lyrics

Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers Lyrics

"The New Teller"

Well, everybody in the bank line knows
That I got a crush on the new teller
It's plain as day, I might as well tell her
She looks my way and she knows quite well, her

Well, everybody in the other lines
They smile at me, the way I'm blushin'
I let 'em pass me, 'cause I'm not rushin'
I got a crush on the new teller
She looks at me and she knows

There's only three in the other lines
In my line, well, I count eleven
Well, that's fine, 'cause I'm in heaven
And I got a crush on the new teller
And she looks at me and she knows
Let's go

Now, everybody in the bank line knows
That I got a crush on the new teller
It's plain as day, I might as well tell her
She looks my way and she knows, and she knows, and she

Everybody in the other lines
They smile at me, the way I'm blushin'
I let them pass me, for I'm not rushin'
I got a crush on the new bank teller, oh yeah
She looks at me and she knows
