    Eye Candy

    by: Ron Sexsmith

    Sipping on a black Dakota pint
    The joint is jumping on a Sunday night
    But then something wicked this way comes
    Sticking out like two sore thumbs
    Eye candy, ear poison
    Oh Mother, keep your boys in
    ‘Cause uptown came downtown
    And now they keep hanging around
    They didn't want to listen to no band
    Why don't they grab a cab back to clubland
    Now they're coming on to every guy
    Like two drunken socialites
    Eye candy, ear poison
    Oh Mother, keep your boys in
    ‘Cause uptown came downtown
    And now they keep hanging around
    It's uncanny, what the wind blows in
    Oh Brother, you'd think what goes in
    Must come out but somehow
    It's been dumbed down and now they're hanging around
    You should see the way they dance
    Rubbing up against everybody's leg
    And like a bad masseuse
    Everything they do rubs me the wrong way
    Well, now something wicked this way comes
    Sticking out like two sore thumbs
    Eye candy, ear poison
    Oh Mother, keep your boys in
    ‘Cause high brow came low brow
    And our eyebrows may never come down
    It can't be, screen's frozen
    Oh Brother, keep your nose clean
    ‘Cause upload came download
    With a truck load of trouble ‘bout to explode
    Eye candy, ear poison
    Oh Mother, keep your boys in
    ‘Cause uptown came downtown
