Lyrics

She had the eyes of some one older
I have eyes that wonder 'round
I couldn't see what really mattered

Caught hell from my boss
Don't care about my job
Caught a cold from the rain
Don't care if I'm cold
Played every record that I own to date
But the only thing I cared about got away

She was a walking work of art
I am a broken wind-up-toy
I thought I knew what really mattered

Got a flat on the road
Don't care about my car
Lost 26 bucks bucks
Don't care about my rent
Caught every episode on tv today
But the only thing I care about got away

She had a brilliant future
I have a past
I have my momories
But they're fading fast

Caught hell from my boss
Don't care about my job
Caught a cold from the rain
Don't care if I'm cold
Played every record that I own to date
But the only thing I care about got away
But the only thing I care about got away
But the only thing I care about got away..
