Plastic Eye
Lyrics by S.Newman

(intro)
last night I had a strange dream
I found a green time machine
climbed inside and took her for a spin
And I traveled far into the future..
wouldn’t believe the things I have seen
I wrote down all the words to the songs
That really thought meant something
then I traveled back through time again
To before these songs where ever written


(chorus)
keep your plastic eyes on me world
Because I won’t let you down
I can cure that frown
I’m gonna stick around

(1)
I promise I will always be there
With my outrageous clothes
stone like cheaks and my crazy hair
So keep me in your electric stare
music has been gone for a while
I am here to bring it back in style

(chorus)
keep your plastic eyes on me world
Because I won’t let you down
I can cure that frown
I’m gonna stick around

(2)
keep me in your flashing gaze
And I can calm all your rage
Because I am here today
can write the word, sing the songs
Ones you aint never heard
open your ears, sing along

(chorus)
So keep your plastic eyes on me world
Because I won’t let you down
I can cure that frown
I’m gonna stick around

(3)
I’m a puppet that pulls his own strings
lonely pawn on a chessboard full of kings
standing on this stage for you, to sing
And I can hold that guiding light
For other musicians to follow
im your knight in a world of sorrow



(bridge)
you all need rescuing from
All of this musical tedium

(chorus)
So keep your plastic eyes on me world
Because I won’t let you down
I can cure that frown
I’m gonna stick around
