There was a popular song when I was little that had the line "Don't it make my brown eyes blue?" The singer had wonderful long hair and pretty blue eyes.
I had brown eyes and wanted bule eyes so bad. I thought the lyrics were "Donuts make my brown eyes blue." She was giving out beauty tips!! I ate lots and lots of donuts, as my waistline could confirm, but I still have brown eyes.
