I paint my nails black
I dye my hair a darker
shade of brown
Cause you like your women spanish
dark, strong and proud
You paint the sky black
You said if you could have your way
You'd make a nighttime all today
So it'd suit the mood of your soul

Oh
What can I do
Nothing
My sparrow blue

Oh
What can I do
Life is beautiful
But you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
That magnificence
It don't make sense to you

Black beauty
Oh x2

I paint the house black
My wedding dress black leather too
You have no room for light
Love is lost on you
I keep my lips red
To seem like cherries in the spring
Darling you can't let everything seem so
dark blue

But oh
What can I do
To turn you on
Or get through you

Oh
What can I do
Life is beautiful
But you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
That magnificence
It don't make sense to you

Black beauty
Oh x5
