People say theres no such thing as voodoo I dont know why People say theres no such thing as love I got a job in s.e. 15 And after tax my wage is 16 July the 17th Ill be 18 I dont think Ill live till 19 People say Im looking so much older than what I am People laugh at me when I say why Im being watched By the evil eye Working for a man who wears a straw hat and never smiles And an apron striped and splashed with blood I stack a pigs head on the shelf The boss comes along and says move yourself I cant move Im hypnotized Staring into a dead pigs eyes I turn around and all I see is ladies With shopping bags Staring at me trying to read my mind And Im being watched By the evil eye And Im being watched By the evil eye (walking home - on my own Standing on the bus stop- crossing the road Im being followed - cause I can feel Someones breath on my neck Someones toe on my heel . . .) Gotta keep on walking I cant stop now - Ive come too far Wait till I get home and lock the door I got the candles burning low I got the cramps on the stereo I got the doll now I can start With a pin right trough the heart I got dolls with straw hats I got ladies with shopping bags Theyll be sorry they crossed me tonight Now theyre being watched By the evil eye Being watched By the evil eye
