Big Eye Little Eye

The Golden Dogs Big Eye Little Eye Lyrics
1.Painting Ape

Down the halls of mediocrity, the echoes of insanity
Falling down, the fools are laughing
They know the reason, they can't be happy now
Great, what does it mean to be great? To feel like it every day

In the land of second places the rule of thumb is try not to say
it
Just hold your tongue and say it nicely
You change the subject ever so politely now
True, what does it mean to be true? Feeling your point of view

Work, keep working on it, work, keep working on it
Sometimes it could feel just like we're almost done
Endless streams of repetition
It looks like we're all wishing for something different

Paint your brain a thousand colors
When every color outside is black and white
We don't know which way we're really going
Wait, I know the right way, please, just wait a second
Stop, shut up the children, I know where I am


2.Nineteen Hundred And Eighty Five

No one ever left alive
In nineteen hundred eighty-five will ever do
She may be right, she may be fine
Might get love but she won't get mine
'Cause I got you

Well, I just can't get enough of that sweet stuff
My little lady gets behind

Oh, my mama said the time would come
When I'd find myself in love with you
I didn't think, never dreamed that
I would be around to see it all come true


3.Dynamo

Meanwhile back at the barstool
Everybody's keeping their own cool
Back in the same old places we always go

Meanwhile back at the barstool
Apathy is singing its own tune
Designing its own depression on us all

Dynamo, Dynamo

No one here to save
No one here today

Meanwhile back at the barstool
Feeling like I'm stuck in a cartoon
No way to fill the spaces up at all

Meanwhile back at the barstool
Giving up on trying to get through
Beginning to think I've said this all before

Not going to stop until I make you move...


4.Never Meant Any Harm

Went across the line
Touched the other side
Looked around just to see what would happen

Found another door
Thought I wanted more
Looked around just to see what would happen

Never meant any harm
I never meant any harm

Let the wine glass find only you and I
Drink it down just to feel that less empty

It's the truth that hides in the darkest night
It's all part of a side that we can't see

Never meant any harm
I never meant any harm

Built a life for you and I
Built a life for you and I
In the dark anything could happen

When your fortune turns
It's a lesson learned
Trying to carry the weight of the wicked

There's no going back
When the chips are stacked
Win or lose it's the rest of our lives

I never meant any harm

All these lines are codes on the open road
Every evil thought every single word

Every trace you hide piles up inside
Fill it right to the top and explode

Never meant any harm


5.Construction Worker

construction worker
when will it be done
when will it be done
when will it be done

construction worker
will it ever be done
will it ever be done
will it ever be done

keeping the team together
seeing it last another day

we tear up the streets
bring 'em to life then it's all
falling to pieces again
the world in its way
breaking our backs
taking every last bit of strength

construction worker
when will it be done
when will it be done
will it ever be done

building the wheel together
seeing it last another age

rattle the walls battle the nerves
wake up and do it all over again
walking the beat
falling in line
keeping time
night after night

wait
quick break
look around
what a mess upon the ground


6.Saints At The Gates

Come in close come in tight
Taste my neck and take a bite
Be the vampire saints you are
Stab it right into my heart
Cut my skin upon your teeth
Cut the muscle underneath
We're not animals at all
Only marching to the call
When the saints go marching in
We'll be walking right beside them
Wanna taste it on my tongue
Breathe it right into my lungs
Taste the blood and sweat like wine
Bite the fruit right off the wine
Stretch out like you're crucified
On the altar of my eye
Resurrect my beaten soul
Turn my metal heart to Gold
When the saints go marching in
We'll be walking right beside them
Come in close come in tight
One more dance before we die
Be the vampire saints you are
Stab it right into my heart

RED BLOOD RED BLOOD RED BLOOD RED BLOOD RED BLOOD RED BLOOD RED
BLOOD RED BLOOD RED!


7.Runouttaluck

Take your time
Tell me what you wanna do
Everybody has to choose
You know what you want
Thought it out
Everything is sinking in
More than just another friend
Is that what you want?
Looking for a song to fill a stereo
When I can't fill up the queen of cups

Everyone knew that as time a-went by
They would runouttaluck

You've been gone far too long
All you've said is a lie, it's a lie,
it's another fucking lie
I followed you through town
Watched your face saw your smile
He's so fun, he's so fun,
he's so fun fun fun
You're the one I wanted all along
My love, I swear

Everyone knew that as time a-went by
They would runouttaluck

9.Theresa

if you meet theresa
you willl know the reason why
broken hearts surround her
they fall around her
everyone needs to belong

at the end of seasons
you may lose the power to breathe
give up all your secrets
no way to beat this
everyone needs to belong

she'll be with you forever
and you'll always remember
the time of your life...

in the age of reason
you may feel the whole world fall
try to analyze it
it's paralyzing
everyone needs to belong

when you step on the time bomb
and the feeling is long gone
still be singing that old song
that she got stuck in your head
'everyone needs to belong'


10.Life On The Line


11.Force Of Nature


12.Wheel Of Fortune

Take a ride upon the wheel of fortune
Never knowing what it's going to take
Always spinning in a new direction
You can never know what's at stake
Take a ride upon the wheel of fortune
Where it's going you can never stay
If you can make it all the way around
Well get ready get set to go around again
Want to save all the wasted days that you threw away
Waiting for the right time
You can lose your whole point of view
When you're stuck in traffic in a panic
Don't go crazy on the wheel of fortune
Don't be thinking that you might escape
Never mind staring at the time
Well let go you know
We could lose our way
We could lose our way...
