Syd Matters - Black & White Eyes lyrics

She's been dancing in a topless bar

And she's doing well so far

She is working to earn her own dollar

‘Cause the fortune teller didn't talk about stars

CHORUS

She has black and white eyes

A mind full of vintage squibs

She has black and white eyes

A mind full of cheering lives

She needs something

To keep her feet on the ground

‘Cause when she's flying around

She never wants to come back down

She lost her smile in '95

When she woke up on the back seat of a studded car

CHORUS

'think I lost her at 24

When she started to lock herself up behind the bathroom door

All along the white line

She can travel back in time

All along the white line

(X2)

I'm on my way looking up today

Never mind if it could be worthing

Tuesday flies away
