I was never faithful And I was never one to trust Borderline and skitzo And guaranteed to cause a fuss I was never loyal Except to my own pleasure zone I'm forever black-eyed A product of a broken home I was never faithful And I was never one to trust Borderline bi-polar Forever biting your nuts I was never grateful That's why I spent my days alone I'm forever black-eyed A product of a broken home Broken home Black-eyed, black-eyed Black-eyed, black-eyed Black-eyed, black-eyed Black-eyed, black-eyed I was never faithful And I was never one to trust Borderline and skitzo And guaranteed to cause a fuss I was never loyal Except to my own pleasure zone I'm forever black-eyed A product of a broken home Broken home Black-eyed, black-eyed Black-eyed, black-eyed Black-eyed, black-eyed Black-eyed, black-eyed Broken home Black-eyed Broken home Black-eyed Broken home Black-eyed Broken home Black-eyed
