Lyrics

EYE ON YOU

I’ve got my eye on you
I’ve been watching you a while
I know your habits
I know your style
I know what you want
I know what you need
The news you watch and the books you read

I’ve got my eye on you,
my eye on you, ooh, eye on you
I’ve got my eye on you,
my eye on you ooh, eye on you

I sit in darkness
I watch the screen
You can’t see me laugh
You can’t hear me scream
But I hear you whisper
Every hello and goodbye
Your whole life parades before my eye

And when my shift is over I go home and cook my soup
And as I sit and sip I know they’re watchin’ me too

I’ve got my eye on you,
my eye on you ooh, eye on you

I’ve got my eye on you
We’ve got to be sure
you’re down with the program
your thoughts are pure
Signs of resistance
met with the fist
I put your number on the list

The list is holy
It keeps us safe and sound
From the malcontents
who’d bring or system down

And so dear neighbor It’s sad but it’s true
be careful what you say and who you say it to
I’ve got my eye on you,
my eye on you ooh, eye on you
I’ve got my eye on you,
my eye on you, ooh, eye on you
