Eyes are gone You're complaining And then, screaming at the ceiling Say you saw Spiders up there Well, I must admit I put them there Oh, Yellow eyes, it's all O.K. Yellow eyes, it's all O.K. Oh, Yellow eyes, don't be afraid Oh, Yellow eyes, Don't you! The problem is You're bad taste runs To dirty old low-class films Films like "Sheila Goes To High School" Films like "Funny Face Goes To Heaven" Oh, Yellow eyes, it's all O.K. Yellow eyes, it's all O.K. Oh, Yellow eyes, don't be afraid Oh, Yellow eyes, don't you! Stranger came back from Woodlawn Seems your daddy-boy, he's gone under water Now he works in Phoenix High School Seems his other side just took over Oh, Yellow eyes, he's not the same Oh, Yellow eyes, who you gonna blame? Oh, Yellow eyes, don't be afraid Oh, Yellow eyes, don't you be afraid
great tune. JLP's voice is haunting. love this jam riff and that key change is sweet as hell. JLP could write about the bleakest topics and with masterful skill.
I love many bands/music, but JLP is my favourite; always that amazing voice, & music, lyrics ❤️ Maybe he had Asperger's; the genius that doesn't fit into but lights up this mortal world, making it better for others: "Yeah, I think we went to see Under The Volcano, then we retired back to my place. I think Henry Rollins might have been there as well actually. Jeffrey and I sat around & took loads of drugs and watched Henry do push-ups." Cave then described Pierce in further detail: "He had a thing about the Vietnam War, for some reason. He was very well read on the subject. And dinosaurs. He talked a lot about dinosaurs. Dinosaurs & the Vietnam war, I think, were his 2 major topics of conversation.. & Japanese horror movies.. I mean, with Jeffrey, you pretty much entered his world when you saw him. His obsessions crawled all over him. But in Jeffrey’s world, sometimes it was very inspiring and illuminating and other times it was painful & depressing. But Jeffrey did make efforts to stay on top of all that sort of stuff. But I think it was very difficult for him ... Jeffrey very often didn’t make sense. That was part of his charm. Jeffrey was full of digressions. I think that was very much part of his character. Jeffrey digressed a lot. One minute he’d be talking about the fall of Saigon & the next minute he’d be talking about the size of a dinosaur’s brain. But I didn’t care I was just happy somebody was talking to me. You just kind of sat back and nodded and listened ... But Jeffrey, a beautiful thing about Jeffrey was that he was able to move outside that and connect on some other level to people … I mean, things like with Luke, my kid, and stuff like that. He genuinely cared about other people. He was very genuine. And you know, I loved him very much. And I think he was a great songwriter. And had a great unique voice. The way he sung up high like that and slightly off key was enough to tear your heart out" Amen x
+YNNFAVTRACKS Yellow eyes (and skin) is a symptom of advanced hepatitis; in JLP's case due in all likelihood to sharing hepatitis infected syringes to inject heroin.
One of the most underrated tracks ever
One of the best voices in R&R ever! JLP definitely had the blues. RIP.
Got to see them live at 688 in ATL back in the day - always loved this track
I have only heard earlier Gun Glub albums.
This is the first time I have anything from this album. Yellow Eyes is a great song.
Mother Juno is an amazing record...
Eyes are gone
You're complaining
And then, screaming at the ceiling
Say you saw
Spiders up there
Well, I must admit I put them there
Oh, Yellow eyes, it's all O.K.
Yellow eyes, it's all O.K.
Oh, Yellow eyes, don't be afraid
Oh, Yellow eyes, Don't you!
The problem is
You're bad taste runs
To dirty old low-class films
Films like
"Sheila Goes To High School"
Films like
"Funny Face Goes To Heaven"
Oh, Yellow eyes, it's all O.K.
Yellow eyes, it's all O.K.
Oh, Yellow eyes, don't be afraid
Oh, Yellow eyes, don't you!
Stranger came back from Woodlawn
Seems your daddy-boy, he's gone under water
Now he works in Phoenix High School
Seems his other side just took over
Oh, Yellow eyes, he's not the same
Oh, Yellow eyes, who you gonna blame?
Oh, Yellow eyes, don't be afraid
Oh, Yellow eyes, don't you be afraid
great tune. JLP's voice is haunting. love this jam riff and that key change is sweet as hell. JLP could write about the bleakest topics and with masterful skill.

My favorite Gun Club song for sure.
