[Instrumental] [Male voice] [Verse - Male voice] One day in late May, mom said Hey, We need to talk, before you go astray. You know you don’t look like your brother. Tom has charisma and looks, like no other. [Pre-chorus ] Son, set your sights down, a little lower, Find someone, who moves a little slower. [Chorus] Your looks won’t win you, any prize, Just shoot for a gal, who’s not, --- cross eyed. Then make her feel, like she’s the one, Even though she may look, half done. [Verse 2] Can’t keep this from you very long, I see your itches are gettin’ strong. Pick any girl out, but look for a four, So, she’ll always be home, --- when you open the door. (Open the door, open the door) [Instrumental] [Pre-chorus] Son, set your sights down, a little lower, Find someone, who moves a little slower. [Chorus] Your looks won’t win you, any prize, Just shoot for a gal, who’s not, --- cross eyed. Then make her feel, like she’s the one, Even though she may look, half done. [Bridge] That friendly chat changed me, for some time, Looking at prospects, of a different kind. It’s amazing how, a loving mother can guide, Helping you to focus on narrow, --- instead of wide. (Instead of wide) [Outro] One day, my dad and I stood lookin’ In a mirror at our reflections. He said, you know son, your mom and me, Always said you looked, --- just like me. [Short Instrumental - go crazy steel guitar] [Final chorus] I was so shocked, I hit the floor. I didn’t know, mom was, just a four. But now in secret and disguise, I need to learn, how and when, --- they fixed her eyes. (ooh, what you learn from hidden lies,) (I didn’t even know she had cross eyes.) (I didn't know she had cross eyes.)
