glasses

Gilberto Gil

All the pretty girls in town would look at me no more
I have my glasses on
Suddenly I'm going crazy ways I haven't gone before
I have my glasses on
If I am wearing glasses, I am happy, I can feel all right
If I am sad, I take the glasses off
It's the darkest night

Oh, baby, why don't you look at me?
What's wrong, baby, you never tell me
Oh, baby, why don't you look at me?
Behind these lenses, I'm a very good boy

Needless to say, I've never been the best
An intellectual charm should help me pass the test
One thing is true, and it seems that you won't believe me thou
I was born with no glasses on
With no glasses, wow

Oh, baby, why don't you look at me - oh, oh
What's wrong, baby, you always say no - oh, oh
Oh, baby, why don't you look at me - oh, oh
Behind these lenses, I'm trying to say hello
