(Even With A) Glass Eye Lyrics

Well, she didn't have time for the reckless falderal of hugs and kisses
She only wanted time to shine
She was feeling sublime about her latest hits and all my misses
She only wanted what was mine

She could've left the room and
She could've sealed my tomb but
She's just a product of her times

Oh yeah
She never looked back at the door she shut and
Oh yeah
She'll wear her best to hit the streets and strut but
Oh no
She'll never learn her lesson 'till the next time
But I can see just why she tries
Even with a glass eye

She kept me up all night with all her fantasies of life in France
She fibbed her way to the top all along
She was feeling uptight about how she would have no second chance
She wanted just to prove me wrong

She could've let me be and
She could've set me free but
She didn't want love lasting long

Oh yeah
She never looked back at the door she shut and
Oh yeah
She'll wear her best to hit the streets and strut but
Oh no
She'll never learn her lesson 'till the next time
But I can see just why she tries
Even with a glass eye

She left a candle burning
She left the water running
She wrote a note upon the wall
She left the laundry growing
My bathtub overflowing
She locked my keys inside the hall

Now she's acting on a stage in California for some TV soap
She reads her lines from a cue card
She's in the hands of some babe who is taking her to go elope
She's as sincere as Hallmark cards

She's faking all her squeals and
Her loving isn't real but
With me she also found it hard

Oh yeah
She never looked back at the door she shut and
Oh yeah
She'll wear her best to hit the streets and strut but
Oh no
She'll never learn her lesson 'till the next time
But I can see just why she tries
Even with a glass eye

Oh yeah
She never looked back at the door she shut and
Oh yeah
She'll wear her best to hit the streets and strut but
Oh no
She'll never learn her lesson 'till the next time
But I can see just why she tries
Even with a glass eye
