I like it weird, yeah really weird, Really weird, just gimme weird, What will it take for you, What will it take to get you weird? The weird thing about a person like you is, You like someone like me, The thing I think I like about you is, You get weirder than me I’ll set you free, come home with me, Come home and gimme weird, Just let me see what’s underneath, Just let me see what gets you weird I like it weird, I like it weird, I like it weird, I like it… ©2017 Mike Zorn

Just Another 02:12
You're just another, Another lover, Another mother, Just like the others, And I don't know why I asked your name at all Is it emotion, Or just compulsion, A sullied notion, My self-revulsion, And I don't know why I call your name al all Your assertion, My diversion, My soul immersion, My self perversion, And I don't know why I know your name at all ©2017 Mike Zorn

Never Seen 03:07
I ran into your mother she has a hundred cats, She still drives a Cadillac abandoned by your dad, Made the front page of the paper, cops chased him ‘round the pool, Should have stuck to selling cars, ‘stead of the devil's tools, Oh never seen my never seen I can’t afford your cool, The rich boys do their never seen right next to daddy’s pool, You came into my house that time you were a sullen creep, I never thought you were the kind who craved the angel's sleep, You could have any girl in town, you certainly had mine, She still has your name tattooed, she never would get mine, Oh never seen my never seen I can’t afford your cool, The rich boys do their never seen and steal your girlfriend too, I went into your office cause I thought I heard a scream, There you were in all your glory with your never seen, I felt like it explained a lot, but you did not seem pleased, I found myself out on the street I hope you felt relieved, Oh never seen my never seen I can’t afford your cool, The rich boys do their never seen and fly off to Cancun. ©2017 Mike Zorn

You Take Me 03:04
You take me up, Above the clouds you carry me, When you’re finished with your love, You send me crashing in the trees, How many times will I believe you and your lies, I'm just the kind that will take it every time. You run away, Leave me sailing in the breeze, Hangin in there long enough, Till you decide to blow back to me, Weren't you the one who said you'd never let me go, Your winter sun left me frozen in the snow. ©2017 Mike Zorn

I float along your wind to fill my sails On the ship I built with my own hands above your sharks and whales But a ship with so many holes is destined to sink But still I weighed the anchor and put her in the drink The things I did to stay afloat were not the best I had In your eyes it made me what I am The invisible man… I found my dark desires on your sea You only asked me for my love and gave all yours to me I had none to give, at least to you When I crossed that line, that was all for you You smashed my compass on the deck and turned the winds on me In your eyes it made me what I am The invisible man… I don’t resent your other lover, though he crept in like a thief Now that you can’t see me it’s kind of a relief My better self has lost it’s way it seems Love lost to hate and anger, cannot be redeemed All of this I made with my own hand In your eyes it made me what I am The invisible man… ©2018 Mike Zorn

Tigers 02:57
25 years is a mighty long time, Water neath the bridge is what they say, The bridge washed away when you said goodbye, I think it was you that I saw that day. Desire lives in my head (Desire) Desire lives in my head (Desire) Desire lives in my head, but the Love is dead (Desire) Wherever you are I don’t wish you ill, I just wish you’d pay the damn credit card bill, Wish you’d figured it out with me, Wish that you’d go and just let me be. Desire lives in my head (Desire) Desire lives in my head (Desire) Desire lives in my head, but the Love is dead (Desire) 25 years is a mighty long time, water neath the bridge is what they say, but the bridge washed away when you said goodbye, I know it was you that I saw that day. ©2017 Mike Zorn

Hot Rod Joe 02:44
Hot rod Joe was an asshole, lived next door back in the day, Everything he did was a hassle, pissed me off in every way, He drove a Monte Carlo 396 4-speed, Revved it up in the carport, every time I wanted to sleep, Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe Worked up at the casino, dealing blackjack, pot, and speed, Every night was a party, down burnouts in the street, His friends were all just like him, fat and dumb and mean, I’d come home from the night shift, they were just getting started again, Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe Shut it down hot rod, shut it down hot rod Joe Hot rod Joe had a lady, I met her by the washing machine, Said she liked the spin cycle, til she got a look at me, I took her through the next load, and she did the same for me, Didn't stick around to fold, but I met her again the next week. ©2017 Mike Zorn

about

The Lost Eyes San Francisco, California

The Lost Eyes are a San Francisco-based band that plays original songs in a jangly post-punk style, with psychedelic flourishes and occasional detours into surf, country and desert rock. We like songs about beauty and tragedy, futility and silliness. 3/4 of us avoid hugs, go figure.

We are: Mike Zorn-Vocals/Guitar, Jeanne Park-Bass, Jan Gyn-Lead Guitar and Peter Warren-Drums/Vocals.
