Alien Eye

Alien Eye

one alien eye

broken over easy running slightly to the right

Shirley has a secret sometime, someplace, somewhere

blue, gray, trailing don't forget it

bloody, bloody, bloody mess it's true

wisecracking, grinning, laughing, wicked you

never been old, never been born

delivered to the door in trousers and a shirt

Shirley has a secret sometime, someplace, somewhere

now I don't ask and I don't tell

I knew on it on the fateful day in line at the bank

I'm spilling and I'm dropping and I'm blushing like a schoolgirl

I must be possessed

one alien eye

simple and he's stealing

kisses in my daydream telling what he'll do

Shirley has a secret sometime, someplace, somewhere

clear as day that I better stay away

but I can't stop thinking

one hand, one look in his steely grip

and he leans in close and he says hold still

hold still

never been old, never been born

I knew on it on the fateful day in line at the bank

I'm spilling and I'm dropping and I'm blushing like a schoolgirl

I must be possessed
