Where Your Eyes Don't Go Lyrics

Artist: They Might Be Giants
Album: Lincoln

Where your eyes don't go a filthy scarecrow waves its broomstick arms
And does a parody of each unconscious thing you do
When you turn around to look it's gone behind you
On its face it's wearing your confused expression
Where your eyes don't go

Where your eyes don't go a part of you is hovering
It's a nightmare that you'll never be discovering
You're free to come and go or talk like Kurtis Blow
But there's a pair of eyes in back of your head

Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders
What the part that isn't thinking isn't thinking of
Should you worry when the skullhead is in front of you
Or is it worse because it's always waiting where your eyes don't go?

Where your eyes don't go a part of you is hovering
It's a nightmare that you'll never be discovering
You're free to come and go or talk like Kurtis Blow
But there's a pair of eyes in back of your head

Where your eyes don't go a filthy scarecrow waves its broomstick arms
And does a parody of each unconscious thing you do
When you turn around to look it's gone behind you
On its face it's wearing your confused expression
Where your eyes don't go

Wow, this song's lyrics are really creepy if you take time to think about it.

The part of you that isn't thinking, isn't thinking about how creepy this song is, while it is hovering behind you grinning with terror and it is also unaware of the thing behind the the thing behind it!

I have it on my phone and listen to it every night while reading stephen king books and trying to find good horror movies

Totally Jean Paul Sartre... or Sigmund Freud. My favorite TMBG tune.
