Makeshift Eyes Lyrics by Bryce Kulak

Tin Can Telephone

2007

I think you only have makeshift eyes
Shifting and acting as a disguise
Hiding what I even realize
Is behind them
I think you only have makeshift hair
Shifting and dangling in empty air
Lovely but none of us even dare
To remind you
Of the time you made curry and burnt the rice
How you wouldn’t take any of our advice
And how all of us thought: Wouldn’t it be nice
To have dinner tonight?
I think you’ve only a makeshift mind
Shifting and stalling and poorly designed
Shrivelled and empty and not silver-lined
Like a rain cloud
Don’t remind me of the time
I felt something stick in my back
I turned round and found that I was under attack
From a shifty-eyed girl with a purple knapsack
That stuck out in the crowd
I think I only have makeshift friends
Shifting and flailing like so many loose ends
Whipping each other until it sends me
Around the bend
Don’t get me wrong,
No I wouldn’t be telling you any of that
But on Saturday I and my grandmother sat
In her luxury, hardwood, two-bedroom flat
And she said, friend:
Don’t trust the girl with the makeshift eyes
Shifting and acting as a disguise
Hiding what I even realize
Is behind them
