Silly Eye Color Generalizations Lyrics
Their eyes are like the ground
You walk and walk, kickin' up dirt
But they don't make a sound
To make sure you don't drown
Yeah, the sweetest eyes, the truest eyes are probably dark brown
The colour of weak tea
They spend their nights howlin' at the moon
To let go of the sea
You think you're finally free
When they capture you
'Cause golden eyes are as sticky as honey from a bee
I'm drownin'...
'Cause I myself have blue
You fall for them so easy
You think you see right through
When suddenly it's just grey rain
Then puddles at your feet, they turn to dirty ice
But somehow they'll melt back to clean blue water once again
Confusing...
Blue sea, blue sky, blue pain
I wouldn't trust my own blue-eyed reflection
As far as I could throw that mirror
Bum ba bum bum...
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
I have rather plain eyes. Dark brown. This song makes me feel a little better about it.
"the sweetest eyes, the truest eyes are probably dark brown"
lovely song!! Regina sound really nice acapella she don't need music! her voice is already a beautiful melody
i adore this song, especialy "i take a leap thinking blue water is deep" its so moving and i love how she goes on this rant about eyes for 3 minutes then at the end say "don't believe me" i luv it... contradictory... amazing...art
What about green?!?!?!?!
I have green eyes, and so do half the guys i know... this depresses me. i feel left out. lol
Green eyes are the interesting ones! Their different from blue...but you can still look at them forever...and they sometimes have other colors in them too! ♥♥♥
I heard this the first time at the concert... it was so sweet!! =)
lol I wish she would just pop in some green eyes one of these days!
I like this song so much. Would green eyes fall into the "earthly eyes"? Green eyes are the best. Mine are green with gold flecks.
Lol I love this song, makes me smile everytime. My eyes are dark blue but from what the songs says you can't trust me on that can you?
I think this song is about how you can make generalizations about physical traits (or any traits, for that matter, I suppose) but really, it doesn't matter because, like Regina said, "When you're lying in your bed, darkness 'round your head, your eyes might as well be polka-dotted or plaid." Eye colors are just something that people see.
I changed my mind. Well, no, I didn't necessarily change my mind, I just thought of a better way to say what I'm thinking. I think this song is about judging people based on appearance. There are all these crazy statements you can make about a small thing like eye color that just completely describe your personality, and then she says, "When you're lying in your bed, darkness 'round your head, your eyes might as well be polka-dotted or plaid." So basically, all these generalizations are kind of pointless because what about when no one can see your eyes?...
