Goo Goo Dolls - Lazy Eye Lyrics






The world spins 'round the secret lives
Of everyone that needs to hide (yeah, hide)
A cheap parade of endless lies
Filters through this lazy eye

And I don't believe in signs
No, I don't believe your lies

Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown

Lose yourself in no one's life
Trapped in nowhere's empty light (oh, light)
Words like fists that tear you down
Crash before we hit the ground

And I don't believe in signs
No, I don't believe your lies

Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown

And I don't believe in signs
No, I don't believe your lies
No, I don't believe your lies

Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Caught in the breakdown
Breakdown
Caught in the breakdown

Goo Goo Dolls Lazy Eye Comments
  1. m.... j....

    I wish there was an instrumental version of this awesome song to be on YouTube.

  2. M.... ....

    Amazing song for a terrible movie.

  3. �.... �....

    ОХУЕННО

  4. M.... M....

    Best song by goo goo dolls amazing 👌

  5. r.... ....

    In 1999 I got Dizzy Up the Girl and these guys became my fav band. I found this song online and wish so much they'd done more like this as they declined with Let Love In an after. We still have everything prior thought!

  6. J.... M....

    Try as I might've, as a teen I just could never play this correctly and straight-through on my guitar. Very difficult. At least for me. But then again, as it turns out, I gave up on that dream in favor of another. Music just wasn't my calling. Where was I? Oh. Difficult to play. Deceptively difficult

  7. L.... S....

    Crazy video but a BADASS song!!!💞💋💞

  8. N.... ....

    Listening out loud this song is fuckin awesome 🔊💥💥💥

    N.... ....

    Fuck yeah!!! 😉

  9. S.... G....

    the biggest shame about this song?


    IT WASN'T ON THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE MOVIE 'BREAKDOWN' WITH KURT RUSSELL!!!!!!


    come on..... they're both from 1997. and the movie had JT Walsh in for for God's sake!!! the best character-actor-villain there is!!!


    Thanks, George Clooney. 🙄

  10. P.... O....

    And this song is from Batman & Robin soundtrack. My kind of favorite.

  11. b.... t....

    Hello my pretty pretty, you look good enough to eat!!!

  12. M.... M....

    Wish i had his hear😭😭💜✨
    This song still rocks✊🎉✨

  13. L.... M....

    So sad they will never write rock songs anymore ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

  14. D.... ....

    The last great song these guys did, before they fell into the soft rock abyss never to return. The success of Name totally ruined them.

    D.... ....

    DinosaurJesus no it was iris

    D.... ....

    Lorenzo Montez: To each his own. I thought Iris was too sappy and sentimental, and so was just about everything they did after that. They became Bon Jovi.

  15. A.... R....

    Batman and Robin Turkish Bath scene

  16. R.... C....

    You have to be from Buffalo to understand this........

  17. M.... B....

    U guys are great !!!

  18. M.... G....

    Bat man

  19. l.... g....

    Why batman and robin not in the video

  20. P.... W....

    love this

  21. M.... P....

    Did anybody fall in love with John rzeznik over this performance in the video

    M.... P....

    Boba Caramel tea oh honey, I fell in love with him in EVERY video from Iris on. He used to be hot as fuck. Black Balloon especially.

    M.... P....

    He's a really hot guy!

  22. M.... P....

    My Family has way different taste in music then I do my mom and sister listen to Latin pop, my dad doesn't listen to music same for my brother my Gramma listens to any music except for mine, my grandpa loves my kinda of music which is pretty cool, and me of course I listen to rock music from late 1970's, 80's, 90's and 2000's and 2010's I have a way more knowledge of music, music from those years are literally way better than everything other people listen to , Goo Goo Dolls had made such an impact on me I'm starting a band with my friend we are called " Arsenic " I know it's a cool name I had came up with randomly thx to the dolls

    M.... P....

    The Goo Goo Dolls #Johhny#Robby#Mike Band?? Awesome

    M.... P....

    @bl1nk_ 7 thanks for the compliment, did you see the steve perry thing yet

    M.... P....

    The Goo Goo Dolls #Johhny#Robby#Mike yep

    M.... P....

    @bl1nk_ 7 what did you think😕

    M.... P....

    it's awesome!

  23. c.... ....

    Very cool song. So underrated.

  24. N.... G....

    Batman and Robin

  25. E.... V....

    amazing!😍

  26. J.... D....

    one of the most underrated songs

  27. F.... J....

    June 20th, 1997 Batman & Robin was released. 20 years ago...

  28. G.... P....

    Most underrated song in the GGD catalog

    G.... P....

    That's probably because hardly anyone listen to their music from movie soundtracks and always expects everything to be like IRIS not that it is bad song but that is like a song that everyone thinks the goo goo dolls is but Lazy eye is another story this was a year before iris came out and everyone loved it and of course goo goo dolls became so famous I wish more people exposed themselves to the goo goo dolls more than just iris but this song is badass

    G.... P....

    1000% agreed. This is a great hidden gem.

  29. J.... M....

    I'm communicating to you.

  30. J.... S....

    Their grunge is showing here ha ha. They had managed to put it away for almost 10 years too. Always felt their work on the Freddy's Dead soundtrack was badass.

  31. L.... H....

  32. L.... V....

    Good times, before Johnny try to turn every goo goo dolls song into Iris and failed.

    L.... V....

    I believe it was just the transition from the style that he liked to listen to as a kid and started trying to write in to the style which he feels, the one best suited for him to write.

    L.... V....

    Lucas Vieira Galvão the lyrics to this song are amazing.

    L.... V....

    They started out as a punk band till he got tired of writing three cord songs.

    L.... V....

    The Goo Goo Dolls accumulated 10 Top 10 hits since Iris so if you define that as failure, I would be happy to as well.

  33. J.... M....

    Awesome guys from another era, 90's always rule :P

  34. J.... A....

    Just another great Goo Goo Dolls song!

  35. C.... S....

    I love whatever it is that Johnny is doing with his hands in this video

  36. M.... D....

    This is def one of my fave songs by them..Johnny is the hottest ive ever seen him in any video...he kinda reminds me of a Keith Urban in the Cop Car video..haha..They are both awesome singers and both really easy on the eyes..Love them both!

    M.... D....

    +Michelle Derbala he does look great!

  37. D.... G....

    Awesome song. Their best one imo

  38. E.... X....

    Hello Pretty Pretty.....

    E.... X....

    You forgot the word “my”.

    E.... X....

    You look good enough to eat

  39. D.... E....

    By that, I mean that this song above is now added to my favourite Batman soundtrack song list.

    D.... E....

    This was the only decent part of the movie

  40. D.... E....

    Great, another awesome song from the Batman & Robin Soundtrack. Next to The Smashing Pumpkins' The End Is The Beginning Is The End, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony's Look Into My Eyes, R-Kelly's Gotham City. Not that great a movie, mind you. Still watch it sometimes, But these songs, though they don't redeem the movie, are awesome!

    D.... E....

    I've heard enough Smashing Pumpkins to last me a lifetime.

  41. J.... M....

    Great song!

  42. S.... O....

    My 5 year-old nephew loves this song, which makes me really happy and really proud :D (I keep trying to get him to like GGD by introducing him to their songs) We were listening to my music while I was babysitting him one day and he told me to replay this song like 3 times lol. Except he keeps calling them the "Googie Dolls," which has now become a bit of a joke in my family -_- Oh well, he'll learn haha

    S.... O....

    Shannon O'Malley your nephew has good taste in music

  43. s.... ....

    One of GGD's best and most underrated songs. I LOVE how Johnny looks just a little crazy. So hot!

    s.... ....

    sweetsarah187 its great i agree the lyrics are beautiful

  44. C.... L....

    Love the song, don't really get the video but oh well

  45. M.... T....

    Is this a little more heavy metal than most of their stuff?

    M.... T....

    This is what all their early stuff sounds like. They started off as a more hard core Punk band. I used to see them play in Buffalo all the time back in the mid 80s when the name of the band was "The Sex Maggots".

    M.... T....

    This is not even close to heavy metal.

    M.... T....

    more hard rock than heavy metal...actually this isn't even a 1/7 of metal

  46. H.... A....

    Dat song

  47. D.... ....

    Great jam! I was lucky enough to see this song performed live by them! John looks sexy and Robby cute as always rockin out in this video. Love these guys!

  48. M.... ....

    "... lose yourself in no one's life ... trapped in nowhere's empty light..."   gossip on the internet, internet ... like an empty echo.  Live your life fully present in the moment. Extend a hand in friendship and dispel myths. :-)  Great song :-) Particularly riffs and din around  "...I don't believe in signs..." ;-)  when all art is about symbols and signs, meaningful expression rather than noise :-)   The light of inspiration comes from many, and some unexpected, sources.  :-)

    M.... ....

    Deep.
    I love it.

  49. R.... R....

    One of their finest songs in my opinion!! Not that I don't like "Iris", "Name" and the the other "obvious" stuff, buuuttt there's just a little hint of passion in this one... It sounds really cool! My favourite! 

    R.... R....

    Best song!

  50. m.... f....

    The world spins 'round the secret lives
    Of everyone that needs to hide (yeah, hide)
    A cheap parade of endless lies
    Filters through this lazy eye

    And I don't believe in signs
    No, I don't believe your lies

    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown

    Lose yourself in no one's life
    Trapped in nowhere's empty light (oh, light)
    Words like fists that tear you down
    Crash before we hit the ground

    And I don't believe in signs
    No, I don't believe your lies

    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown

    And I don't believe in signs
    No, I don't believe your lies
    No, I don't believe your lies

    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown
    Breakdown
    Caught in the breakdown

    m.... f....

    milton fernandez i thought he was saying no o don t believe i size. SORRY

  51. L.... H....

    To: ALL of You jealous haters (in thoughts & deeds) of this ~Beautifully Eternal Face Of Rzeznik's~, have you even begun to L@@K in the mirror 2 SEE WHAT YOURS COULD EVEN POSSIBLY BEHOLD!??! NOW, is it RUINED Or Not? 

    1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." Luke 16:15 Jesus said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves in men's eyes, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly prized among men is utterly detestable in God's sight. Get "A LIFE"! 

    L.... H....

    It's interesting to me that someone who posts Scripture also makes it a point to put people down. Rather hypocritical. Not to mention that those verses are talking about judging a person's character, not that people aren't allowed to say "I wish he didn't have plastic surgery." It's important to keep those verses in context and not just throw them around when it suits you.
    That said, the Bible also teaches us that our bodies are a temple and we should take care of it, and it also teaches us to be content with what we have. I love Rzeznik, but think it's a shame he chose to change how God created him. That doesn't make me a "jealous hater" or in need of "a life." It means I appreciate what God has given me and others, and wish others would feel the same.

  52. J.... B....

    That's because this video is almost 20 years old.

  53. F.... ....

    it is really sad man
    he just ruined his beautiful face

    F.... ....

    Floydandsome its just his haircut

  54. V.... L....

    He had surgery on his nose & he had fillers

    V.... L....

    Victoria Landry what?

  55. c.... ....

    Very nice song. Very underestimated...

  56. B.... S....

    This was made before "Iris" and after the album that had "Name" Not new Goo Goo Dolls at all.

  57. F.... ....

    I hope that he is juist getting old
    but his face really looks like had a plastic surgery

  58. D.... B....

    John used to be SO beautiful. It's too bad that plastic surgery ruined his original face. I mean, he is still gorgeous but not at all like he used to be. I am obviously grateful that his voice hasn't changed, nor his outstanding songwriting skills. :)

  59. R.... C....

    oooo it's like they've gone back to their roots of loud and punk music.

  60. T.... P....

    because it smells like teen spirit of course? lol

  61. J.... G....

    i like! god rock!

  62. T.... ....

    Reminds me of Nirvana. Why does it remind me of Nirvana?

    T.... ....

    TheBradLaPlanteShow probably because of the songs vibe

    T.... ....

    Probably bc John looked like Kurt during their earlier years. Go watch the video for "Naked." I thought Kurt was in the video at first.

  63. x.... ....

    John looks like he's losing his mind in this video... it's kinda sexy :D

  64. R.... V....

    Um.......it was written FOR THE BATMAN AND ROBIN SOUNDTRACK.

  65. M.... I....

    look at his eyes. =)

  66. t.... ....

    I likeeee

  67. S.... M....

    It's because this video was shot ten years ago, the song's on their greatest hits Volume 2 but was never released on an album

    S.... M....

    Sandsef McGreggor Not counting the Batman and Robin soundtrack, correct ?

    S.... M....

    The song appeared on Batman & Robin only. Then it appeared on Volume II.

  68. N.... A....

    Awesome this new song.. I can't stop to hearing it.. It in the concerts could be very rousing...Goo Goo Dolls come to Brazil, pleaaaaaaaaase!

  69. T.... M....

    Fantastic song and the lyrics and hard beat capture my attention. Is it me or does John look 10 years younger? Really looking forward to May 7th...Release it in Buffalo like Let Love In, please!!

  70. I.... ....

    My god John, how beautiful you are.

  71. T.... ....

    I remember watching that movie when I was like 6. lol

  72. S.... R....

    yeah, it's from batman&robin soundtrack

  73. T.... ....

    really? wow, I feel like such a dumbass :D

  74. S.... R....

    this video is from 1997! :)

  75. T.... ....

    John Rzeznik still looks the same as he did 20 years ago
