She was swinging from her handbag on the King's Road
Fresh from boarding school and double barreled shame
Now there are worms in her skin She's razor thin, her eyes are pinned I get the, "Daddy never noticed" story again
She takes me to a warehouse in the city
Her gaze as vacant as a byline in the news
And I reach in disbelief then resign myself
She's slumming it in someone else's shoes Burberry blue eyes
This town is not so small
If you take everyone to bed And leave the lights all on Somebody will see it all
The details of your midnight operations The tears you've been spreading around
And your story's so predictable You spent too long just hanging around, hanging around
Oh, she was brought up from a distance by the usual Rattlers and tattlers from the best guarded schools
Auditioning to be an obituary in the Daily Mail The yawning scandal of the daughter of the duchess breaking rules Burberry blue eyes
This town is not so small If you bang him in the car And leave the doors wide open Somebody will see it all
You're becoming so predictable You spent too long just hanging around, hanging around
I get plugged in at another phony party
Convinced that now there's really nothing left to lose
'Til I turn around and watch her disappearing
He's got his hand in her pocket, she's got her eye on his shoes And I know I've been converted to old currency Somebody new will guarantee her bootleg soul I'll be her proof of purchase counter trophy And help her die a little more, deeper in her hole Burberry blue eyes
I guess, we're just not meant to be
If you blow him in the club And leave your eyes wide open
Somebody is going to see
The details of your midnight operations The tears you've been swallowing down And your story's so predictable The end so unavoidable I've never seen you earn your thrills You've spent too long just hanging around
Oh, Burberry blue eyes
Oh, Burberry blue eyes
Oh, Burberry blue eyes
Oh, Burberry blue eyes
