lyrics

do you ever look at the stars and if so, what's your opinion
do we have to quantify to establish dominion
i need to stand upon the moon to get a better view
and if i can domesticate one i'll name it after you
after you after you after you
(you're so beautiful)
'cause you're so beautiful

but you're still waiting for a simple minded man
to sweep you off your feet one whom you can command
when you really need to feel in control
he'll remove his skin while you paint your toenails
he'll craft a blanket with it
tuck you in while you're cold
god forbid you ever shiver in your throne of silver, not gold
second best
from your toe to your breast
you knew it well
you felt it big time
you knew it well
you felt it big time

with the sand on the beach from the crevasse of your feet to your knees in the shape of a V
with the sand on the beach from the crevasse of your feet to your knees in the shape of a V
you're wearing black lipstick
you're talking like a mystic
you know, i really thought i knew ya
you're wearing black lipstick
you're talking like a mystic
you know, i really thought i knew ya
with the sand on the beach from the crevasse of your feet to your knees in the shape of a V
(aah) with the sand on the beach from the crevasse of your feet to your knees in the shape of a V
you're wearing black lipstick
you're talking like a mystic
you know, i really thought i knew ya
