Artist/Band: Rick Springfield
Lyrics for Song: Motel Eyes
Lyrics for Album: Living In Oz [1983]



Her come on was direct and strong

From her question to her kiss

She said she'd had a little much to drink

She didn't usually do this

But she was looking for another head to scalp tonight

And she had me right between her sights



I turned to face her as the jukebox clicked off

Playing a favorite song

And she looked pretty in the low lit bar

But something was wrong

I saw a dull red neon sign flashing in her eyes

It said " vacancy," she had motel eyes



They were black as the night

And shone like a star

Fueled by the light

From a medicine jar

I looked again but there was nothing there

But ice in her eyes

There's no disguising motel eyes



She had the angles all down pat

Her average must be high

And though it could have been a pleasure

I just had to say goodbye

Though there was something wicked

'bout the way she flexed her thighs

She scared me with her motel eyes



They were black as the night

And shone like a star

Fueled by the light

From a medicine jar

I looked again but there was nothing there

But ice in her eyes

There's no disguising motel eyes



She started saying something

'bout movement versus size

The sign kept flashing in her motel eyes



They were black as the night

And shone like a star

Fueled by the light

From a medicine jar

I looked again but there was nothing there

But ice in her eyes

There's no disguising motel eyes



Black as the night

Black as the night, motel eyes
