Lyrics Almost Ideal Eyes - Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Here
she
comes
with
her
almost
ideal
eyes
And
her
flawless
skin
and
her
petulant
pout
The
memory
of
such
a
long
blond
alibi
Still
makes
me
want
to
shout
out
loud
You
************
when
you
clear
your
head
my
dear
You
can't
come
out
here
in
those
stolen
clothes
Telling
me
all
about
some
mystery
I
hope
she
isn't
one,
I
hope
she
isn't
one
of
those
Almost
ideal
eyes
Viewed
through
a
rosey
hue
So
beautiful,
trusting
You
find
liberal
is
an
insult
now
and
care
is
what
you
pay
for
Be
sure
of
what
you're
wishing
for,
be
careful
what
you
pray
for
When
you
look
into
those
almost
ideal
Love
is
smiles,
he
will
hypnotize
you
wild
He
tries
to
analyze
your
dreams
Fill
you
up
with
all
his
big
ideas
while
he
really
wants
to
make
you
Scream
out
loud
at
the
phony
innocence
And
pained
pretence
and
the
dismal
rage.
The
vacant
lot
that
thankfully
time
forgot
Where
you
never
have
to
act,
you
never
have
to
act
your
age
Almost
ideal
eyes
Viewed
through
a
rosey
hue
So
beautiful,
trusting
You
find
stupid
is
a
compliment
and
thrill
is
what
you
play
for
Be
sure
of
what
you're
wishing
for,
be
careful
what
you
pray
for
When
you
look
into
those
almost
ideal
eyes
In
the
spirit(?)
all
your
friends
look
uglier
And
you
find
you're
wearing
an
evening
gown
Weeping
over
some
tiny
broken
bird
While
the
sky
is
decorated
Shocking
pink
and
a
dirty
shade
of
brown
And
you
think
you
need
to
be
tranquilized
A
feat
that
may
fit
to
your
new
career
Whatever
you
invent
you'll
never
be
content
with
Almost
ideal
eyes
Viewed
through
a
rosey
hue
So
beautiful,
trusting
Rebellion
is
just
currency,
the
moon
is
what
you
pay
for
Be
sure
of
what
you're
looking
for,
be
careful
what
you
pray
for
When
you
look
into
those
almost
ideal
eyes
Here
she
comes,
here
she
comes
now...
