Shiny (iTunes Session)

By the bumper cars in the pretty twining light

I may have gone too far,

I may have gone too much, too long

I'm a dull and witless boy

In the after bars, think

I was sullied by a dream

In the killing jar you and me at war at arms

All falling in embrace

Tell me why you lied

And what it is you do to keep your eyes

All shinyA tawny gypsy girl

Sleeping blanketed by stars

Beneath the tilt a whirl where we were coyly caught alone

All fumbling with your blouse

Tell me why you lied

And what it is you do to keep your eyes

All shinyAnd in the roller coaster din

By the parachutes in saddle shoes you break your shin

But I have never seen two eyes so shiny

And the sullen beery swine

Trying to tangle you in sullen beery balls of twine

Have they ever seen two eyes so shiny

The boys in denim vests, smoking cigarettes between

Their bootblack fingertips

Sweetly tipsy by the half-light

The light and the half-light

Tell me why you lied

And what it is you do to keep your eyes
