Razorlight - Burberry Blue Eyes lyrics
rate me<BR>
She was swinging from her handbag on the King's Road<br>
Fresh from boarding school and double barreled shame<br>
Now there are worms in her skin<br>
She's razor thin, her eyes are pinned<br>
I get the, "Daddy never noticed" story again<br>
<br>
She takes me to a warehouse in the city<br>
Her gaze as vacant as a byline in the news<br>
And I reach in disbelief then resign myself<br>
She's slumming it in someone else's shoes<br>
<br>
Burberry blue eyes<br>
This town is not so small<br>
If you take everyone to bed<br>
And leave the lights all on<br>
Somebody will see it all<br>
<br>
The details of your midnight operations<br>
The tears you've been spreading around<br>
And your story's so predictable<br>
You spent too long just hanging around, hanging around<br>
<br>
Oh, she was brought up from a distance by the usual<br>
Rattlers and tattlers from the best guarded schools<br>
Auditioning to be an obituary in the Daily Mail<br>
The yawning scandal of the daughter of the duchess breaking rules<br>
<br>
Burberry blue eyes<br>
This town is not so small<br>
If you bang him in the car<br>
And leave the doors wide open<br>
Somebody will see it all<br>
<br>
You're becoming so predictable<br>
You spent too long just hanging around, hanging around<br>
<br>
I get plugged in at another phony party<br>
Convinced that now there's really nothing left to lose<br>
'Til I turn around and watch her disappearing<br>
He's got his hand in her pocket, she's got her eye on his shoes<br>
<br>
And I know I've been converted to old currency<br>
Somebody new will guarantee her bootleg soul<br>
I'll be her proof of purchase counter trophy<br>
And help her die a little more, deeper in her hole<br>
<br>
Burberry blue eyes<br>
I guess, we're just not meant to be<br>
If you blow him in the club<br>
And leave your eyes wide open<br>
Somebody is going to see<br>
<br>
The details of your midnight operations<br>
The tears you've been swallowing down<br>
And your story's so predictable<br>
The end so unavoidable<br>
I've never seen you earn your thrills<br>
You've spent too long just hanging around<br>
<br>
Oh, Burberry blue eyes<br>
Oh, Burberry blue eyes<br>
Oh, Burberry blue eyes<br>
Oh, Burberry blue eyes<br>
<BR><BR>
<BR>
