about
Written and sung by bass player Crispin Dorvak, "Blue Eyes" is a funky, freaky tour-de-force of tuneful carnage Equal parts "My Girl" by The Temptations as it is Warren Zevon's "Excitable Boy", "Blue Eyes" is a Country-fried, Soul-tinged, ode to axe murders and affordable housing.
lyrics
You're not so different, no you're
Out of whck
You take what's given but you don't
Give nothin' back
So I split you open, baby, oooo
Licked your bones
Buried your body underneath my
Mobile home
And oh, your
Blue eyes
Opened up some wine
Oh, your
Blue eyes
Bet you didn't even
No you didn't even
Didn't realize
That I was standing right behind you with a
Four foot axe
Swung around and gave you
Two good whacks
Oh, I split you open, baby, oooo
Licked your bones
I buried your pieces underneath my
Kitchen floor
And oh, your
Blue eyes
Lookin' so divine
Oh, your
Blue eyes
Bet you didn't even
No you didn't even
YOW!
And oh, your
Blue eyes
Opened up some wine
Oh, your
Blue eyes
Bet you didn't even
No you didn't even
Didn't realize
