Lyrics

Girl With One Eye

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

She told me not to step on the cracks

I told her not to fuss and relax

Pretty little face stopped me in my tracks

But now she sleeps with one eye open

That's the price she'll pay

I took a knife and cut out her eye

I took it home and watched it wither and die

Well, she's lucky that I didn't slip her a smile

That's why she sleeps with one eye open

That's the price she'll pay

I said, hey, girl with one eye

Get your filthy fingers out of my pie

I said, hey, girl with one eye

I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry

I slipped my hand under her skirt

I said don't worry, it's not gonna hurt

Oh, my reputation's kinda clouded with dirt

That's why you sleep with one eye open

That's the price you'll pay

I said, hey, girl with one eye

Get your filthy fingers out of my pie

I said, hey, girl with one eye

I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry

You made me cry

You made me cry

You made me cry

I said, hey, girl with one eye

Get your filthy fingers out of my pie

I said, hey, girl with one eye

Get your filthy fingers out my pie

I said, hey, girl with one eye

Get your filthy fingers out of my pie

I said, hey, girl with one eye

I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry
