Lyrics
Roving Eyes
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.
Better take what you can
I got a roving eye
You can't leave me wet
I said you better wring me dry
And baby do you think I made it with my most size
You better do what you what you're told
You better just get wise
Roving eye
And you're oh so dissolute
Don't you be so flattered if I think you're cute
There's only one of me
There's a million of you
If you can't fake it
I said anyone else will do
Roving eye
I don't trust my intuition
I don't place any bets
Don't ask nothing from no one
My feelings never connect
I don't believe in a better world
Baby I'm stuck with you
'Cause I'd rather take my turn
