Bloodshot Eyes
Love's Reflection: Decoding Bloodshot Eyes
Lyrics
Now just because your pretty, and you think youre mighty wise
Addressing someone who considers themselves attractive and clever but may not be trustworthy.
You tell me that you love me, then you roll those big brown eyes
Expressing doubt about the sincerity of the person's love, pointing out their flirtatious behavior.
When I saw you last week, your eyes were turnin black
Noticing physical signs of a recent altercation, suggesting the person was in a fight.
Go find the guy that beat you up - ask him to take you back
Sarcastically advising the person to reconcile with the one who caused the fight.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Warning against displaying bloodshot eyes, indicating the person has been engaging in questionable activities.
I can tell youve been out on a spree
Observing signs of a wild or unrestrained lifestyle.
Well its plain that youre lyin
Asserting that the person is not truthful.
When you say that youve been cryin
Expressing skepticism when the person claims to have been crying.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Reiterating the warning against displaying bloodshot eyes.
I used to spend my money, to make you look real sweet
Recalling spending money to enhance the person's appearance.
I wanted to be proud of you when we walked down the street
Desiring pride in the person's appearance during public outings.
Now dont ask me to dress you up, in satin and in silk
Rejecting requests to dress the person up due to their disheveled and intoxicated state.
Your eyes look like two cherries in a glass of bottled milk
Comparing the person's bloodshot eyes to cherries in milk, emphasizing the unattractive appearance.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Repeating the warning against displaying bloodshot eyes.
I can tell youve been out on a spree
Noting signs of a wild lifestyle based on the appearance of the person.
Well its plain that youre lyin
Asserting the person's lack of honesty.
When you say that youve been cryin
Expressing doubt about the person's claims of crying.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Reiterating the warning against displaying bloodshot eyes.
So I guess our little romance has finally simmered down
Suggesting the end of the romantic relationship, recommending a career change to the circus.
You should join the circus, you make a real good clown
Mocking the person's appearance by calling them a clown.
Your eyes look like a roadmap, Im scared to smell your breath
Describing the person's eyes as resembling a roadmap, indicating a chaotic and troubled life.
You better shut your peepers before you bleed to death
Advising the person to close their eyes to avoid further harm.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Repeating the warning against displaying bloodshot eyes.
I can tell youve been out on a spree
Reiterating the observation of a wild lifestyle based on the appearance of the person.
Well its plain that youre lyin
Reaffirming the lack of honesty in the person's demeanor.
When you say that youve been cryin
Expressing skepticism when the person claims to have been crying.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Warning against displaying bloodshot eyes once again.
Dont roll those bloodshot eyes at me
Final repetition of the warning against displaying bloodshot eyes.
