    "Otro" comes first, and I'm not sure about that "te comeré"...  Let me
check with my grandma.  Okay, I got something wrong, but you definitely don't
se "te comeré".  The second phrase is: "yo voy a comer tu otro ojo".  She
said you can say "comeré" and technically be correct, but it sounds like "I'm
going to eat your eye later on in the day", or something.  So, that's my two
cents.
