lyrics

Who is this woman passing by?
Who is this woman who caught my eye?
Who is this woman who caught my eye?
She polished it up and said, “What a nice glass eye,”
My oh my, my oh my.

But at what cost?
But at what cost?
She looked so lost,
But at what cost?

I said, “You look rather lost,”
She said, “I was lost until I found you,” hoo hoo hoo,
I turned on my Google Maps,
But she just said, “Perhaps
I’m just meant to follow you,” ooh hoo hoo.

But at what cost?
But at what cost?
Her eyes were glossed over.

I run away from her and hide in an abandoned swimming pool,
I dip my foot into the water but it’s very very cool,
The icy water, it makes my body shiver and quiver and shiver,
But she follows me in and says she wants a sliver of my liver,
Can we not dance?

Who was that woman who took a part of me?
(She took my liver specifically), hee hee hee,
It makes me laugh to think of all the pain,
I really hope it happens again,
But she said she wouldn’t hurt me like she did that day, hey hey hey.

But Atwood cost?
But at what cost?
I think her fingers were crossed,
But at what cost?

But at what cost?
But at what cost?
I think her fingers were crossed,
But at what cost?

Alexa, play ‘Stranger on the Shore’ by Acker Bilk.
