The Evil Eye
[Verse 1]
People say there's no such thing as voodoo
I don't know why
People say there's no such thing as love
I got a job in S.E. 15
And after tax my wage is sixteen
July the seventeenth I'll be eighteen
I don't think I'll live till nineteen
People say I'm looking so much older
Than what I am
People laugh at me when I say why
[Chorus]
I'm being watched
By the evil eye
I'm being watched
By the evil eye
[Verse 2]
Working for a man who wears a straw hat
And never smiles
And an apron striped and splashed with blood
I stack a pig's head on the shelf
The boss comes along and says move yourself
I can't move, I'm hypnotized
Staring into a dead pig's eyes
I turn around and all I see is ladies
With shopping bags
Staring at me trying to read my mind
[Chorus]
And I'm being watched
By the evil eye
And I'm being watched
By the evil eye
[Bridge]
Walking home on my own
Standing on the bus stop, crossing the road
I'm being followed 'cause I can feel
Someone's breath on my neck
Someone's toe on my heel
[Verse 3]
Gotta keep on walking, I can't stop now
I've come too far
Wait till I get home and lock the door
I got the candles burning low
I got the Cramps on the stereo
I got the doll, now I can start
With a pin right through the heart
I got dolls with straw hats
I got ladies with shopping bags
They'll be sorry they crossed me tonight
[Chorus]
Now they're being watched
They're being watched
By the evil eye
Being watched
By the evil eye
Being watched
By the evil eye
People say there's no such thing as voodoo
I don't know why
People say there's no such thing as love
I got a job in S.E. 15
And after tax my wage is sixteen
July the seventeenth I'll be eighteen
I don't think I'll live till nineteen
People say I'm looking so much older
Than what I am
People laugh at me when I say why
[Chorus]
I'm being watched
By the evil eye
I'm being watched
By the evil eye
[Verse 2]
Working for a man who wears a straw hat
And never smiles
And an apron striped and splashed with blood
I stack a pig's head on the shelf
The boss comes along and says move yourself
I can't move, I'm hypnotized
Staring into a dead pig's eyes
I turn around and all I see is ladies
With shopping bags
Staring at me trying to read my mind
[Chorus]
And I'm being watched
By the evil eye
And I'm being watched
By the evil eye
[Bridge]
Walking home on my own
Standing on the bus stop, crossing the road
I'm being followed 'cause I can feel
Someone's breath on my neck
Someone's toe on my heel
[Verse 3]
Gotta keep on walking, I can't stop now
I've come too far
Wait till I get home and lock the door
I got the candles burning low

I got dolls with straw hats
I got ladies with shopping bags
They'll be sorry they crossed me tonight
[Chorus]
Now they're being watched
They're being watched
By the evil eye
Being watched
By the evil eye
Being watched
By the evil eye
