Mirrors
( - D. Roeser - B. Abbott - )

A mirror is a negative space
With a frame and a place for your face
It reveals what the rest of us see
It conceals what you'd like it to be

Pretty girls can't look away
Pretty girls can't look away
Pretty girls can't look away
Pretty girls can't look away

Pretty girls have a love afair
With their eyes and their shining hair
Fantasize that the world adores
Tantalize like a cover girl

Mirrors are the basis of beauty
Give rise to self love or self pity
The prize if a woman is pretty
She tries like a superstar Hollywood girl

Pretty girls can't look away
Pretty girls can't look away
Pretty girls can't look away
Pretty girls can't look away

Vanity's a deadly sin
It's what the flesh is packaged in
Vanity's a deadly sin
It's what the flesh is packaged in

A mirror is a negative space
With a frame and a place for your face
It reveals what the rest of us see
It conceals what you'd like it to be

Vanity's a deadly sin
It's what the flesh is packaged in

  • great and under-rated song!

  • Totally agree that Columbia flubbed the marketing on this. Should have been at least Gold. Heck that said, Cultosaurus, Rev by Night, Imaginos, Heaven Forbid and Curse of the Hidden Mirror are all robbed of the deserved Gold status cert. I blame radio and MTV for overglamoring the sellout bands of the 80s, glorifying popularity and ignoring talent. BOC had more talent than all but 4 bands of their era.

see all

  • Sheer lyrical brilliance. The lead vocals are somewhat underwhelming but inexplicably compelling, much like most of The Clash's London Calling.

  • @XRedxEyedxWandererX too young to been at their 70's concerts, too far away to visit their new concerts, but both can be seen here on youtube. what is your point?

  • @ZZombyWooff you have obviously not been to one of their concerts

  • @CARASSAR who the hell has classed them as metal band? jesus christ..

  • Metal "fantasy"!

  • why are they classed as a metal band?

  • YOU GUYS THAT DISLIKE THIS SUCK!

  • THIS IS AN EXCELLENT ALBUM, THE BEST OF THAT YEAR

  • One of my all time BOC Faves! They are still Awesome today; so far Ahead of their Time! A truly underrated Band that deserves a lot more Fame than they recieve. Buck Dharma is Awesome!
