Lyrics[edit]

   cyclops woman got one eye in her head
   mascera-clotted vision she is fed
   cyclops woman can't see nothing at all
   she got a pin-prick-spiral hole
   she can't see nothing, nothing at all
   she can't see nothing, nothing at all
   cyclops woman dying in her shell
   guilt got her trapped in nailed in well
   cyclops woman is the eye of the world
   who's reflection's in the retina?
   she can't see nothing, nothing at all
   she can't see nothing, nothing at all
   dialate, dialate
