A Thousand Eyes Lyrics

the night has a thousand eyes
he's got the sharpest knife
but I've got a thousand lives

i've got a thousand lives
and you are just one of mine
this cat gives me an extra nine

speak louder
godfather
you want what's mine
so show your face

strike harder
you know what's mine
you want what's mine
I saw you

cat burglar
so come inside
and show your face
to me

the night has a thousand eyes
you are just one of mine
i've got the eagle's sight

come inside
come inside
come inside
come inside

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

About being self-conscious, feeling like you're being watched by a thousand eyes
