Regina Spektor - Silly Eye-Color Generalizations lyrics
[Regina Spektor - Silly Eye-Color Generalizations lyrics]
There are those boys with earthly eyes
Their eyes are like the ground
You walk and walk kicking up dirt
But they don't make a sound
And when they kiss you
They sometimes leave 'em open
Just to make sure you don't drown
Yeah, the sweetest eyes the truest eyes are
Probably dark brown
There are those boys with golden hazel eyes
The color of weak tea
They spend their nights howlin' at the moon
To let go of the sea
The scope of their depth is terrifying
Thrilling you think you're finally free
When they capture you
'Cause golden eyes are as sticky as
Honey from a bee i'm drownin'
But those with blue i shouldn't trust
'Cause, I myself have blue
You fall for them so easy
You think you see right through
You take a leap, thinking blue water is deep
When suddenly it's just grey rain
Then puddles at your feet
They freeze to dirty ice
But somehow they'll melt back to
Clean blue water once again confusing
Blue eyes, they change like the weather
Blue sea, blue sky, blue pain
I wouldn't trust my own blue-eyed reflection
As far as I can throw that mirror
Bum bum bum
But these are just silly
Eye color generalizations
You shouldn't believe a word I've said
'Cause when you're lying in your bed
Darkness 'round your head
Your eyes might as well be
Polka dotted or plaid polka dotted or plaid
Their eyes are like the ground
You walk and walk kicking up dirt
But they don't make a sound
And when they kiss you
They sometimes leave 'em open
Just to make sure you don't drown
Yeah, the sweetest eyes the truest eyes are
Probably dark brown
There are those boys with golden hazel eyes
The color of weak tea
They spend their nights howlin' at the moon
To let go of the sea
The scope of their depth is terrifying
Thrilling you think you're finally free
When they capture you
'Cause golden eyes are as sticky as
Honey from a bee i'm drownin'
But those with blue i shouldn't trust
'Cause, I myself have blue
You fall for them so easy
You think you see right through
You take a leap, thinking blue water is deep
When suddenly it's just grey rain
Then puddles at your feet
They freeze to dirty ice
But somehow they'll melt back to
Clean blue water once again confusing
Blue eyes, they change like the weather
Blue sea, blue sky, blue pain
I wouldn't trust my own blue-eyed reflection
As far as I can throw that mirror
Bum bum bum
But these are just silly
Eye color generalizations
You shouldn't believe a word I've said
'Cause when you're lying in your bed
Darkness 'round your head
Your eyes might as well be
Polka dotted or plaid polka dotted or plaid
