Open Your Eyes |
| I was sitting in the dance-hall |
| But my mind was far away |
| So when the usherette walked over |
| I didn’t know quite what to say |
| I tried to look cool |
| But I knew that I blew it somehow |
| Her fishnet tights took me quite by surprise… |
| I had to open my eyes |
| I told her I was dancing |
| But she didn’t seem to hear; |
| She asked if I wanted to learn judo |
| Then she threw me out on my ear |
| Before I’d even had time to take a bow |
| I landed on the street, all dishevelled my disguise |
| But I really opened her eyes |
| So if you’re leaning over the balcony |
| Or hanging around the floor |
| These are the last of the days of the Locarnos-- |
| There really are no more |
| And the usherette smiles |
| But she’s not telling all she knows… |
| But there’s time in the end for us all to get wise |
| If we only open our eyes |
