Lyrics to Private Eyes
Head's too close to the ceiling of a basement bar
You're too far in get yourself out
Who can you trust when you lust after desire itself?
You must get yourself out
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
Ooh-ooh-oh
Hey, girl, you said we gotta get outta here
But should I be following you?
You got the look of painted broken china
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself?
Everybody can see that you've got private eyes
Fall into the arms of being somebody else
Anybody can see that you've got beautiful private eyеs
So I draw a door with my finger on the basemеnt wall
When we walk through, where do we go?
It's easy to make the mistake of thinking nothing is real
But I know everything goes
Everything goes
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself?
Everybody can see that you've got private eyes
Fall into the arms of being somebody else
Anybody can see that you've got beautiful private eyes
There's a mirror on the table and a mirror on the wall
You know you're gonna hurt yourself whichever way you fall
You're doing what you're able and they label it your all
It's a miracle you're standing and you handle it at all
A mirror on the table and a mirror on the wall
You know you're gonna hurt yourself whichever way you fall
You're trying every night, but you just can't get it right
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself?
Everybody can see that you've got private eyes
Fall into the arms of being somebody else
Anybody can see that you've got beautiful private eyes
Beautiful private eyes
Beautiful private eyes
Beautiful, private, beautiful private eyes
Beautiful, private, beautiful private eyes
Beautiful, private, beautiful private eyes
Beautiful private eyes
You're too far in get yourself out
Who can you trust when you lust after desire itself?
You must get yourself out
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
Ooh-ooh-oh
Hey, girl, you said we gotta get outta here
But should I be following you?
You got the look of painted broken china
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself?
Everybody can see that you've got private eyes
Fall into the arms of being somebody else
Anybody can see that you've got beautiful private eyеs
So I draw a door with my finger on the basemеnt wall
When we walk through, where do we go?
It's easy to make the mistake of thinking nothing is real
But I know everything goes
Everything goes
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself?
Everybody can see that you've got private eyes
Fall into the arms of being somebody else
Anybody can see that you've got beautiful private eyes
There's a mirror on the table and a mirror on the wall
You know you're gonna hurt yourself whichever way you fall
You're doing what you're able and they label it your all
It's a miracle you're standing and you handle it at all
A mirror on the table and a mirror on the wall
You know you're gonna hurt yourself whichever way you fall
You're trying every night, but you just can't get it right
Why do you go blind each time you look at yourself?
Everybody can see that you've got private eyes
Fall into the arms of being somebody else
Anybody can see that you've got beautiful private eyes
Beautiful private eyes
Beautiful private eyes
Beautiful, private, beautiful private eyes
Beautiful, private, beautiful private eyes
Beautiful, private, beautiful private eyes
Beautiful private eyes
