They Might Be Giants - Where Your Eyes Don't Go Meaning

Where Your Eyes Don't Go Lyrics
And does a parody of each unconscious thing you do
When you turn around to look it's gone behind you
On its face it's wearing your confused expression
Where your eyes don't...

The main theme of this song seems to be the conflict between humanity's conscious and unconscious minds.
The filthy scarecrow being our central nervous system. Which, if you have ever looked at it, is quite the jumbled pile of things.
The statement is about questioning free will itself, being that our unconscious mind seems to always be ahead of the part we're personally using.
