Listen now, let me speak   I will be the dog at your feet   And come along when you call   Be the little bird in your straw and sing you a song   I'll be there to take the fall   Though you tread upon me for no reason at all      [Chorus]   But just when you think you've left me blind   I will keep you in the corner of my eye      I will never leave your side   Though you call me your number one zero   your nevermind   I'll be your king, I'll be your pawn   I will build a pedestal and put you upon it      [Chorus]   But just when you think you've left me blind   I'll be creeping right up behind   Cause if I need to   I will keep you in the corner of my eye   corner of my eye      Down on the street, over your night   Out of your sleep, out of your sight   if I need to, if I need to   Out of your mouth, in every word   Down in your ego one thing is sure   I will keep you, I will keep you      [Chorus]   But just when you think you've left me blind   I will be creeping right up behind   Cause baby if I need to   Lord, I will keep you in the corner of my eye   I will be the bird in your straw   But you won't get far   I will keep you in the corner of my eye
