Eyes Wide Open Lyrics


Crazy planet, no alignment
Rise above, hit the jet-stream
Rocky road, got my assignment
Rise above, ride my dreamsOne on one, take a little bite
What I got, you never had
One on one, no use to fightLove's my thing, so good it's bad
Love's my thing, so good it's bad
So good it's bad, so good it's badLet's go down to our secret place
So good it's bad, so good it's bad
Let's go down to our secret place
You got my eyes wide openUnexpected, undetected
You got my eyes wide open
Hiding from those prying eyes
You got my eyes wide openBelow the radar, in plain sight
You got my eyes wide open
Secret passage to your place tonight
You got my eyes wide openI don't wanna clash
I don't want to rehash the past

I just want release
(I just want some peace)Let's go down to our secret place
You got my eyes wide open
Let's go down to our secret place
You got my eyes wide openFeel it, feel it, feel it, feel it
Oh, yeah
Feel it, feel it, feel it, feel it
Oh, yeahYeah, you're so good, so good it's bad
What you got is what I want
One on one, don't you fight
Pull it together, ride it rightLove so good, so good it's bad
What I got you never had
Get it together, get it right
Get it together, take a biteCan you feel it? Unexpected
Can you feel it? Undetected
Livin' on the peripheryCan you feel it? Unexpected
Can you feel it? Undetected
Livin' on the peripheryCan you feel it? Words are bombs
Can you feel it? Words are missiles
Livin' on the peripheryCan you feel it? Undetected
Can you feel it? So unexpected
Living on the peripheryI don't wanna clash
I don't want to rehash the past
I just want release
I just want some peaceLet's go down to our secret place
You got my eyes wide open

The B-52's are an American rock band formed 1976 in Athens, Georgia, United States. The band formed as Fred Schneider (vocals), Kate Pierson (vocals, organ), Cindy Wilson (vocals, guitar), Ricky Wilson (guitar) and Keith Strickland (drums). After Ricky Wilson died in 1985, Strickland replaced him as a guitarist. The band is perhaps best known for their 1978 single "Rock Lobster" and their 1989 pop smash "Love Shack".

The name comes from the bouffant wigs that are part of the band's distinctive look, worn by singers Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson. Along with Wilson and Pierson, fellow vocalist Fred Schneider, drummer (and later guitarist) Keith Strickland and guitarist Ricky Wilson (Cindy's older brother) formed the band after a drunken night at a Chinese restaurant.

Their sound is particularly marked by the vocals of Wilson and Pierson, with Kate singing in a slightly deeper voice, along with the generally monotone or spoken-word vocals of Schneider. Aside from their vocals, the band also had a unique New Wave sound that was a combination of dance and surf music, and the unusual guitar-string tunings utilized by Ricky Wilson. Although part of the new wave movement, their music was more experimental than most new wave, indulging in all manner of odd vocal and synthesizer effects. It created a quirky dance sound that became very popular.
