Lyrics

[Verse 1] Pretty, pretty are the girls as they go by Chilly, chilly is the air under moonlit sky The windows watch you as you walk along And the streets lead back to where you started from [Chorus] The city's watching and you can't get by No matter where you hide You know the buildings have eyes, too This place is lonely, but you can't get away No matter what you say You know the buildings have eyes, too [Verse 2] Silly, silly are the thoughts that fill your head Wish I'd never set out, wish I'd stayed in bed You see reflections from across the street So you better get movin', stop draggin' your feet [Chorus] The city's watching and you can't get by No matter where you hide You know the buildings have eyes, too This place is lonely, but you can't get away No matter what you say You know the buildings have eyes, too [Verse 3] (Money) Money, money, gotta get some money and run (Da-da-da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da, money) A position I find unenviable It doesn't matter which way you turn But you gotta keep trying 'cause you'll never learn [Chorus] The city's watching and you can't get by No matter where you hide You know the buildings have eyes, too This place is lonely, but you can't get away No matter what you say You know the buildings have eyes, too [Verse 4] Funny, funny how the world goes 'round and 'round ('Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round) You better watch your step, don't make a sound The windows watch you as you walk along And the streets lead back to where you started from [Chorus] The city's watching and you can't get by No matter where you hide You know the buildings have eyes, too This place is lonely, but you can't get away No matter what you say You know the buildings have eyes, too [Outro] Pretty, pretty Chilly, chilly Silly, silly Money, money Funny, funny (Buildings have eyes)
