Beautiful Eyes

"Beautiful Eyes" is a song that Homer wrote about Marge a while back that described her every feature in the episode "Little Orphan Millie". The music was written by Alf Clausen and the lyrics by Mick Kelly.

Lyrics

Homer:

Oh, I'll never remember what color Marge's eyes are. Uh...brown? No. Orange? No. Elm? Rake? Guessing? Oh.

Grampa:

(laughs) Well, well, look who's strolling down Alzheimer Avenue. You used to know everything about that wife of yours, even wrote a song about her.

Homer:

A song? (gasps) Wait, it's coming back to me!

The girl I love's got beautiful hair,

A blue bouffant from here to there.

Snow white teeth and lips of red,

She's my Wilma to my Fred.

Oh, the girl I love's got beautiful (gasps) eyes!

When happy, they sparkle, when sad, they cries.

Those eyes are gems beyond appraisal

Stunning shade of purest—

Oh, what is it? I was so close! Let's see, what rhymes with appraisal? Basil, nasal. None of these are colors. Oh, it's hopeless. She'll never love me again.

Marge:

Oh, Homie. I'd forgotten that beautiful song you wrote for me.

(Homer finally looks at her eyes and sees that they are colored...)

Homer:

Hazel! Your eyes are hazel! Hazel like the pussy willows by the pond where we first kissed, like the almond paste in the bear claw I ate after we first made love.
