Ever since I first bought this house several years ago
About a third of every commodity I bought would disappear to the great unknown
Now I never gave it too much thought until about a year back
When bills went up and my food was low and my salary wasn't cutting its slack
So one night I decided to hide a secret cam
I left it rolling all night on the counter behind the jam
When I woke up in the morning, I got up and reviewed the tapes
And with a great astonishment, I found the culprit who was taking my food away
For years and years a woman crawled out of my attic every single night
Oh how I'd never know without this video what I was missing in my life
Oh her green eyes
How I long for her green eyes
Oh how could I ever despise my attic girl with those green eyes?
So the rest of the day I thought it through, wondering what I could do
So I baked her a tray of coconut meringues with a sticky note that said "for you"
And every single night of the following week I left her something good
Didn't wanna come off to strong like intruding in my attic would
And then one evening when I'm doing the dishes after baking her a lemon pie
I heard heard the ceiling creak and then a knock I think. I turn around and to my surprise
There were her green eyes
How I was missing those green eyes
Whoa peering from the open attic staring back at me were her green eyes
Oh those green eyes
Mangled hair and her green eyes
They got me thinking how could I ever despise my attic girl with those green eyes?
Years later today we're doing A-OK. Your average nuclear family in the USA
Yeah we had two kids. Changed their diapers washed their bibs
But they still haven't figured out where mommy lives
Which I admit is pretty great cause after very long days
A trip to the attic makes me feel okay when my lovely attic lady takes my troubles away
With her green eyes
How she kills me with those green eyes
Oh how could she ever be a bad surprise when God gave her those green eyes
Her green eyes
You got me falling with those green eyes
Oh how could I ever despise my attic girl with those green eyes?
Oh how could I ever despise my attic girl with those green eyes?
I could never despise my attic girl with her green eyes
