Peek-A-Boo Lyrics
Creeping up the backstairs
Slinking into dark stalls
Shapeless and slumped in bath chairs
Furtive eyes peep out of holes
She has many guises
She'll do what you want her to
Playing dead and sweet submission
Cracks the whip deadpan on cue
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Reeking like a pig sty
Peeling back and gagging free
Flaccid ego in your hand
Chokes on dry tears, can you understand?
She's jeering at the shadows
Sneering behind a smile
Lunge and thrust to pout and pucker
Into the face of the beguiled
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, where did you get those eyes?)
Strobe lights pump and flicker
Dry lips crack out for more
Come bite on this rag doll, baby
Well, that's right, now hit the floor
They're sneaking out the back door
She gets up from all fours
Rhinestone fools and silver dollars
Curdle into bitter tears
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, where did you get those eyes?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, where did you get those eyes?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, were did you get those eyes?)
Where did you get those eyes?
Where did you get those eyes?
Slinking into dark stalls
Shapeless and slumped in bath chairs
Furtive eyes peep out of holes
She has many guises
She'll do what you want her to
Playing dead and sweet submission
Cracks the whip deadpan on cue
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Reeking like a pig sty
Peeling back and gagging free
Flaccid ego in your hand
Chokes on dry tears, can you understand?
She's jeering at the shadows
Sneering behind a smile
Lunge and thrust to pout and pucker
Into the face of the beguiled
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, where did you get those eyes?)
Strobe lights pump and flicker
Dry lips crack out for more
Come bite on this rag doll, baby
Well, that's right, now hit the floor
They're sneaking out the back door
She gets up from all fours
Rhinestone fools and silver dollars
Curdle into bitter tears
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, where did you get those eyes?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, where did you get those eyes?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (golly jeepers, where'd you get those peepers?)
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo (peepshow, creepshow, were did you get those eyes?)
Where did you get those eyes?
Where did you get those eyes?
