Mirror, Mirror Songtext

von Dr. Dog

At the bottom there's a stir
And now the surface is a blur
Tell the truth like it's a joke
And don't fix the part that isn't broke

I know I'm just a memory
And I know that's how it's got to be
So tell the mirror on the wall
Mirror, mirror on the wall
There's no reflection here at all

Mirror, mirror on the wall
There's no reflection here at all

I'm so tired that I can't sleep
The secrets that my secrets keep
Down the stairway to the church
Blackbirds hanging in the lurch

And I don't want to see my name in stone
I tied a ribbon round a bone
Took a ride in a yellow car
And bought myself an old guitar

Things ain't what they used to be
I gotta devil after me
Tell the mirror on the wall
Mirror, mirror on the wall
There's no reflection here at all

Mirror, mirror on the wall
There's no reflection here at all
Mirror, mirror on the wall
There's no reflection here at all

You're looking high, you're looking low
And you got something on your mind
Did someone give you bad directions?
Were you in the wrong place at the wrong time?

They found a body in the river
They found a note left in the sand
Leave my worries to the water
And leave my body to the land
