When I look up to the sky
I see your eyes, a funny kind of yellow
I rush home to bed, I sunk my head
I see your face underneath my pillow
I wake next morning, tired, still yawning
See your face come peeping through my window

Pictures of matchstick men and you
Images of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

Windows echo your reflection
When I look in their direction, gone
When will this haunting stop?
Your face, it just won't leave me alone

Pictures of matchstick men and you
Images of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

You in the sky, you with this guy
You make me cry, you lie
You in the sky, you with this guy
You make me cry, you lie

Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men
Pictures of matchstick men

    Come on guys, this was their "Joes's Garage" period. First, early songs sounded like all other psychedelic stuff. Took a while before they discovered their sound. 12 bar boogie - catch any live vids from the mid '70's - sheer fun music.
