Mind Your Eye
Lolita Pop Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′ve been down to the ground now a hundred times
Itsy Bitsy is my name
I'm the spider working hard in the nursery rhymes
While you appear as the rain

Every time I get onto my feet again
You washed me down with your lies
I was fighting seven weeks in the ocean waves
Before I drowned in your eyes
Again

Mind your eye, mind your eye
You′re the one who made me cry
Mind your eye, mind your eye
Or I may find another guy

I'm the writer of a great thick novel with 500 pages left to do
The hero's already dead, two pages was all it took
I don′t know what to do

I tried again, again the hero just let me down
This time on page twenty-two
He slipped away, he disappeared, he just can′t be found
I bet that hero was you
Yes I do

Mind your eye, mind your eye
You're the one who made me cry
Mind your eye, mind your eye
Or I may find another guy

I bet the hero was you

Mind your eye, mind your eye
You′re the one who made me cry
Mind your eye, mind your eye
Or I may find another guy

Mind your eye, mind your eye
You're the one who made me cry
Mind your eye, mind your eye
Or I may find another guy





You better mind your
You better mind your

Line by Line Meaning

I've been down to the ground now a hundred times
I've experienced many failures and setbacks in my life


Itsy Bitsy is my name
I am insignificant and small, like the spider in the nursery rhyme


I'm the spider working hard in the nursery rhymes
I'm working hard to make something of myself, just like the spider in the nursery rhyme


While you appear as the rain
You seem to come and go in my life, like the rain


Every time I get onto my feet again
Every time I try to stand up and move on


You washed me down with your lies
You bring me back down with your deceitful words and actions


I was fighting seven weeks in the ocean waves
I was struggling to survive and keep my head above water


Before I drowned in your eyes
Before I became lost in your gaze and fell for you


Mind your eye, mind your eye
Be careful, watch out


You're the one who made me cry
You caused me emotional pain and hurt


Or I may find another guy
Or I may move on and find someone else


I'm the writer of a great thick novel with 500 pages left to do
I have great potential and talent, with a lot of work still ahead of me


The hero's already dead, two pages was all it took
My hopes and aspirations have been crushed so easily, like the unexpected death of the main character in my story


I don't know what to do
I am lost and unsure of how to move forward


I tried again, again the hero just let me down
I attempted to start over, but my hopes were once again dashed


This time on page twenty-two
This time it didn't take much before it all fell apart


He slipped away, he disappeared, he just can't be found
The hero, or my hopes and dreams, have vanished and I can't seem to grasp them again


I bet that hero was you
I blame you for my failures and dashed hopes, as if you were the main character who failed me


You better mind your
You better be careful and watch out

This is a worthy goodbye from a very promising band that died too soon.

In a way, you can probably say that the end of Lolita Pop was the beginning of First Aid Kit 🙂
