Observing my teenaged girl with her first big crush! Everything in the song is everything she did! It just had to become a song because it will probably be so well understood by most of the teenage girl population!

Lyrics
THE EFFECT
(c) 2005 Pam Hanna (BMI)
I pour myself in hot designer clothes
Almost bathe in catch-a-boy cologne
Im losing sleep reading glamour books
And worrying about what I say and how I look
I write your name on everything I own
No good with words, but now Im writing poems
Chorus
Its the effect
That you have on me boy
Deep inside Im not myself
Its the effect
That you have on me boy
Im going crazy, yeah
Thats what you do to me
I go berserk if you dont call on time
Raid the fridge, eat everything in sight
Ive worn out the numbers on my telephone
Trying to track you down if you are not home
Its obvious I lose my self control
When youre on my mind my common sense is on hold
Chorus
Bridge
Love is doing something to me
Everybody says that it shows
Im not at all like I used to be
Youre the cause, that I know
Chorus
