Richard Thompson
Mingus Eyes
[Verse 1]
What a fool I was
What a thin disguise
Brando mumble
Mingus eyes
[Verse 2]
Was a time she fell
But then she got wise
Brando mumble
And Mingus eyes
[Bridge]
I never had the squint of James Dean
Or the Stanislavsky tears
Or the rebel hunch that kills
Or the smile that slowly disappears
[Verse 1]
What a fool I was
What a thin disguise
Brando mumble
Mingus eyes
Brando mumble
Mingus eyes
