Songtexte: Eels. The Only Thing I Care About.

she had the eyes of someone older
I have the eyes that wander 'round
I couldn't see what really mattered

caught hell from my boss
don't care about my job
caught a cold from the rain
don't care if I'm cold
played every record that I own today
but the only thing I care about got away

she was a walking work of art
I am a broken wind-up toy
I thought I knew what really mattered

got a flat on the road
don't care about my car
lost twenty-six bucks
don't care about my rent
caught every episode on tv today
but the only thing I care about got away

she had a brilliant future
I have a past
I have my memories
but they're fading fast
