I'm Making Eyes at You Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Bah! 

Cover art for I'm Making Eyes at You lyrics by Black Kids

is it just me or does this song sound a little like eyes without a face by billy idol

the way his voice is and the chorus with the backup vocals and it also has "eyes" in the title

maybe i'm just being dumb that was just my first impression of the song

My Opinion

It's definitely got the same feel as Eyes Without a Face. I was listening to Billy Idol and happened to get Partie Traumatic on the same day.

It's a great song about someone who loves the idea of being in love. At the same time, he knows that the possibilities of a dream are easily dashed by reality. He can't continue to enjoy making eyes at the beautiful woman across the room if he goes over and talks to her and discovers she is not the person he built her up to be in his head.
