I paint my nails black
I dye my hair a darker shade of brown
Cause you like your women
Spanish dark strong and proud
I paint the sky black
You said if you could have your way
You'd make a night time of today
So it'd suit the mood of your song
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
Their magnificence
it don't make sense to you
Black beauty oh oh oh
Black beauty oh oh oh
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
The same like cherries
in the spring
Darling you can't
let everything
Seem so dark blue
Oh what can I do
To turn you on or
get through to you
Oh what can I do
Life is beautiful
but you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence
it don't make sense to you
Black beauty oh oh oh
Black beauty oh oh oh
Black beauty ah ah
Black beauty ah ah
Black beauty ah ah ah ah
Black beauty baby
Black beauty baby
Oh what can I do
Life is beautiful
but you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence
it don't make sense to you
Black beauty oh oh oh
Black beauty oh oh oh
Black beauty oh oh oh
Black beauty oh oh oh
