The Charlatans

Dead Man's Eye

The Charlatans


The war was won, the battle over ran 
The fire in the girl in the far east sun 
The rhythm was swift, the boys they were alive 
There will always be a clue in a dead man's eye 

Way out west on any avenue 
We always find the girls in the high heel shoes 
The boys were shot, my father was a liar 
There will always be a clue in a dead man's eye 

The winds were heavy and the boys were shot 
The river was red, all the lives we lost 
The devil encounters makes you feel damned 
To be alive 

The war was won, the battle over ran 
The fire in the girls in the far east sun 
The rhythm was hot, my father was alive 
Always be a clue in a dead man's eye 

The spirit was broken but the girls were hot 
The river was red, all the lives we lost 
The devil encounters makes you feel damned 
To be alive
