lyrics

Chords: E A D A E A D A E (repeat all the way through)

I see you through the looking glass, through the jokes and the jive and the rat-pack class
I see you through the looking glass, through the looking out glass I see!
I see you in the morning light, when the blurry night's way out of sight
I see you in the morning light, in the morning light's sight I'll see!

<chorus>
And you're being a man with a smoke in your hand
And the plan's going grand in the fantasy land
And the pork and the beans and the greasy machines
And you're smirking on the side all day!
And the guys and the fries and the cyanide lies
And their eyes don't cry and their lives don't die
And this guy's so high
It's the poor man's lie
And you're drinking all the night away!

I see you through the looking glass, through the looking glass and that short-lived cash
I see you past the lazy flash, through the looking out glass I see!
I see you in the morning light, when the lights and the height have taken flight
I see you in the morning light, in the morning light sight I'll see!

<chorus>

I see you through the looking glass, through the jokes and the jive and the rat-pack class
I see you through the looking glass, through the looking out glass I see!
I see you in the morning light, when the blurry night's way out of sight
I see you in the morning light, in the morning light's sight I'll see!
