lyrics

The Man with the X-Ray Eyes
by Michael Boer

you've got my prescription
I won't let you get away
I will force this heat from you
the man with the x-ray eyes

you've got all your past life research
I won't let you slip away
I will force you to make a new man of me
the man with the x-ray eyes

you say you've seen
blood and glass
hot and cold
knife blades of gold
skeletons of the residents of earth
and paperback pornographs

you've seen highway wrecks
stretched across the American west
and heavy lead beneath sunken decks
that no eye was meant to see

you say sleep will come
and spring will delay
and the rot of blossoms on funeral display
are all signs to the wise
that you recognize
the man with the x-ray eyes
