“Green Eyed Fool is about a bit of jealousy and cynicism you get from people who haven’t had the balls to do things for themselves.” – Barrie Cadogan
You know your clothing doesn't hang the same
You sounded southern when you took my name
You're into something and you're out of that
Claim that you missed us but you can't call back
Been hitting places that I never been
Jumped over oceans while I sit in streams, uh-huh
Dutch courage told me that I'm right
Like what I talk and talk just what I like
So don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
Don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
Some call me bitter but I like the taste
Tough to resist another one horse race
Can't face the music so I lift my hood
Point-blank refusing never felt so good
You sweated blood and now you're seeing stars
I'm in the gutter with my ego scarred, uh-huh
Some call me just a green-eyed fool
But come to think of it, that's all I do
So don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
Don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
You'll be the public when you hit this town
Blend into nothing with the dance floor clowns
I got my heavy box of forty-fives
They're gonna make me look the shit all night
I never meant to be a big fish in a small pond, yeah
But then again, it's such a steady job
But I don't wanna get robbed, no
Some call me just a green-eyed fool
But come to think of it that's all I do
So don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
Don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
Don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it
Don't come 'round here
Thinking that you know it, yeah
Thinking that you know it, yeah
Thinking that you know it, yeah
Thinking that you know it, yeah
Thinking that you know it, yeah
Thinking that you know it, yeah
