Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl
You're all that I need in the world
I'm your child
Make me blush
Drive me wild
Suzanne, you're all that I wanted

When I met you I was all alone
Cold and hungry crying on the phone
You baked me brownies and said "don't you cry"
And gave me the coat off your back

Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl
You're all that I need in the world
I'm your child
Make me blush
Drive me wild
Suzanne, you're all that I wanted

Even Izzy, Slash, and Axl Rose
When I call you put 'em all on hold
And say to me that you'd do anything
And all I can do is say that I haven't much
I can give you in return
Only my heart and I promise not to turn
I sing to you, every day and every night
Susanne, I'm your man

Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl
You're all that I need in the world
I'm your child
Make me blush
Drive me wild
Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl

    General Comment:DBEN is correct. I actually dated Susanne in LA for a couple of months, and then I moved. She is a very wonderful person. She was an actress/waitress at the time. She worked as a PA for Guns n Roses and Weezer, when Weezer was first starting. Hence, the izzy slash and axl rose lyrics. She did indeed make them brownies and she gave him a coat. She said he was very nervous and anxious about everything. Playing in little places with hardly any audiences starting out. And by the way, she's very pretty, in a natural way. A smile to melt your heart. Cat person too. Having dated her is the coolest claim to fame I have!

    General Comment:just a hypothesis:
    "I'm your child
    Make me blush
    Drive me wild
    "
    could be a freudian slip or a reference to the oedipus complex

    General Comment:i would change my name to suzanne if it meant someone would sing this to me. its just so cute, it doesn't talk about how pretty she is, or how rich she is, she is just a genuine good person. and so is he.

    General Comment:Besides everything else that's been said, I always thought there was a witty play with lyrics from Leonard cohen's Suzanne, a similar character, further on when he proclaims "I'm your man" another song by cohen, buut it could be just coincidence...anyways great song

    General Comment:Oh, anyways, I think if they were to make a movie out of the book "The Lovely Bones" (but let's hope not because good-books-turned-movie usually don't come out so good), this would be a good song to play in there.

    This song is awesome!
