Mingus Eyes

What a fool I was

What a thin disguise

Brando mumble

Mingus eyes



Was a time she fell

But then she got wise

Brando mumble

And Mingus eyes



I never had the squint of James Dean

Or the Stanislavsky tears

Or the rebel hunch that kills

Or the smile that slowly disappears



What a fool I was

What a thin disguise

Brando mumble

Mingus eyes

Brando mumble

Mingus eyes
