Ink Pot Eyes

Disco: The Nightmare Of J.B. Stanislas [2010]
Autor: Nick Garrie

I watched a drunk come stumbling down the street

And he was calling out your name to all he chanced to meet

And I heard a lady try to immitate you

And another try to break you

But they all gave up and prayed to you

And may I introduce you to the stars

And fields where you can lose yourself in all the flowers

You know a man stands small against the sky

But if his dreams are turned to dust

Then he will surely die

Ink pot eyes

Oh oh oh them deep blue skies

Ink pot eyes

Oh oh oh them deep blue skies

And once I met a man who said he’d loved you

And tried to keep you

But you’d kept him and gone away

And now he says he’s trying hard to find you

And he’ll be kind to you

But he doesn’t know you

Oh no he’ll never know you

And may I introduce you to the stars

And fields where you can lose yourself in all the flowers

You know a man stands small against the sky

But if his dreams are turned to dust

Then he will surely die

Ink pot eyes

Oh oh oh them deep blue skies

Ink pot eyes

Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
