The Light In My Little Girls Eyes by The Legendary Pink Dots Lyrics
The street looked kind of different -
Harsher colours sharper angles. Shops stacked
High with stereos and rows of magazines
Smells of coffee, glossy limousines. The sun
Danced on the chromium. Slant eyes drowning
In the light. Lights turned red as elbows jabbed
Voices snarled and luck turned sour, Children
Screamed! Brakes were screeching! Knees
Were pumping, ribs were crunching...
Crushing, drowning deeper...
The street looked kind of different. The paving
Stones were playing cards, and cried out as
I skipped from the red to the black. Cracked a
Joke about the joker, saluted all the kings, threw
A ring to the blackest queen who ushered me away
To the palace in the square where the air's so cold
And it gets so lonely in the night
She whispered sleazy secrets on the couch
By the TV. 3D visions of a soapflake, trumpets
Blared, a voice declared: "Are you feeling dirty?"
Yes but also very pleased. Heard applause, felt
The claws in my back, rocking backwards, rocking
Forwards in the groove. The earth moved! The
Couch moved! We rolled on the felt, knocked the
Vases off the shelf... Watched ourselves in the
Mirror, like animals like cannibals! And you
Ate my ear so I nibbled on your shoulder... Rolled
Your tongue up in my hands - I swallowed it whole
Flesh decreasing by the second until all that
Remained were the eyes, mine brown, yours black
Tilted back, we stared at the hollywood sunset
Brighter now... it looks so pretty tonight
The light in my little girl's eyes...
Harsher colours sharper angles. Shops stacked
High with stereos and rows of magazines
Smells of coffee, glossy limousines. The sun
Danced on the chromium. Slant eyes drowning
In the light. Lights turned red as elbows jabbed
Voices snarled and luck turned sour, Children
Screamed! Brakes were screeching! Knees
Were pumping, ribs were crunching...
Crushing, drowning deeper...
The street looked kind of different. The paving
Stones were playing cards, and cried out as
I skipped from the red to the black. Cracked a
Joke about the joker, saluted all the kings, threw
A ring to the blackest queen who ushered me away
To the palace in the square where the air's so cold
And it gets so lonely in the night
She whispered sleazy secrets on the couch
By the TV. 3D visions of a soapflake, trumpets
Blared, a voice declared: "Are you feeling dirty?"
Yes but also very pleased. Heard applause, felt
The claws in my back, rocking backwards, rocking
Forwards in the groove. The earth moved! The
Couch moved! We rolled on the felt, knocked the
Vases off the shelf... Watched ourselves in the

Remained were the eyes, mine brown, yours black
Tilted back, we stared at the hollywood sunset
Brighter now... it looks so pretty tonight
The light in my little girl's eyes...
