Lyrics for Girl With One Eye

She told me not to step on the cracks I told her not to fuss and relax Pretty little face stopped me in my tracks But now she sleeps with one eye open That's the price she'll pay I took a knife and cut out her eye I took it home and watched it wither and die Well, she's lucky that I didn't slip her a smile That's why she sleeps with one eye open, oh But that's the price she'll pay I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" Get your filthy fingers out of my pie" I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry" I slipped my hand under her skirt I said, "Don't worry, oh, it's not gonna hurt" Oh, my reputation's kinda clouded with dirt That's why you sleep with one eye open, oh But that's the price you'll pay I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" Get your filthy fingers out of my pie" I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry" You made me cry You made me cry You made me cry I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" Get your filthy fingers out of my pie" I said, "Girl with one eye" Get your filthy fingers out of my pie" And I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" Get your filthy fingers out of my pie" And I said, "Hey, girl with one eye" I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry"
