This playful yet introspective song juxtaposes whimsical imagery with themes of disillusionment and facade. The protagonist describes Judy, a woman who presents an alluring yet deceptive exterior, symbolized by "glasses" that mask her true self. References to "lemonade pies" and "cantaloupe eyes" suggest a superficial, sweet façade, while accessories like "bracelets" and a "new rara's" illustrate her material obsessions. Judy’s enchantment pulls the narrator in, but he recognizes that her allure takes everything in sight, "except for the strings on my kite" — a metaphor for the remnants of his freedom and individuality. By the end, Judy’s facade leads to disappointment, likened to "a life of ashes," and the narrator ultimately decides to discard her deceptive "glasses." The song captures a bittersweet recognition of the gap between appearances and reality.
Judy In Disguise (With Glasses)
Lyrics
Judy in disguise, well that's what you are
Lemonade pies with your brand new car
So, cantaloupe eyes come to me tonight
Judy in disguise, with glasses
Keep a-wearing your bracelets and your new rara's
And cross your heart, yeah, with your livin' bra
Chimney Sweep Sparrow with guise
Judy in disguise, with glasses
Come to me tonight, come to me tonight
Taking everything in sight
Except for the strings on my kite
Judy in disguise, hey that's what you are
A lemonade pies, with your brand new car
So, cantaloupe eyes come to me tonight
Judy in disguise, with glasses
Come to me tonight, come to me tonight
Taking everything in sight, except for the strings on my kite
(Oh, uh oh, uh)
Judy in disguise, what you aiming for?
A circus of a-horror, yeah-yeah, well that's what you are
You made me a life of ashes
I guess I'll just take your glasses
