Sunken-eyed girl in the sandwich shop 
Ladle my soup from the kettle pot, so 
Swoony myself with the smolder looks 
Parsing that gaze for the right intention 

Sunken-eyed girl don’t let me go 
You’re the whole world and you barely know so 

You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking and 
Fall down stumble 
All of the things I think and keep thinking and 
Wake up tremble 

All 
These tears are bound to fall 

Sunken-eyed girl on the Ludlow Street 
Junkieland once but they swept it up, so 
Sing in my mind, singing you’re so sweet 
I need a bundle of dope just to numb it out cause I’m 

Feeling so good that it hurts my skin 
Feeling so good I could do myself in 

You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking and 
Wake up tremble 
All of the blinks I blink and keep blinking and 
Fall down stumble 

All 
These tears are bound to fall 

I’m 
No prize for you 
No trophy too 
Keep walking through 
And I’m 
Not worth a dime 
I’ll drag you down 
Don’t waste your time 

Sunken-eyed girl on Delancey Street 
Bulletproof glass in the KFC so 
Keep the man safe in his paper hat 
Keep the wrong hands off the biscuit fortune 

Sunken-eyed girl don’t let me go 
You’re the whole world and you barely know so 

I'm 
No prize for you 
No trophy to 
Keep walking through 
And I'm 
Not worth a dime 
I'll drag you down 
Don't waste your time.
