Beautiful Is (As Beautiful Does) |
Hey you is something I have to say |
I see as close and golden |
And love is something I have to say |
Is in the eyes of the beholden |
I stand here and you stand there |
I can hear a siren in the air |
& beautiful is |
As beautiful does |
& beautiful does |
Everything |
Here’s a gift, it was given to me |
I carry it round continually |
A flower, a record, a counterfoil |
Three tons of petals make a litre of oil |
& beautiful is |
As beautiful does |
& beautiful does |
Everything |
Looking round for a circus girl |
With a black and white halo |
Found in a foreign hotel |
Looking for a kid of her own |
Foundered in the spin of a different view |
A different gravity, an independent state |
What have you lived through? |
What do you want to recreate? |
A book of worlds |
Or a book of lies? |
The world is an oval |
With oval eyes |
Beauty is everything, beauty is love |
Beauty can die outside a nightclub |
Yeah suki, suki, what d’you want me to do? |
Float downstream like a phoenix do |
& beautiful is |
As beautiful does |
& beautiful does |
Everything |
Love always |
Wears my shirt or did |
Love always |
Waits till home to phone |
Love always |
Likes to wait alone |
Love always |
Learns a new desire |
Love always |
Is a little liar |
Love always |
Bites here lip to write |
Love always |
Gets more hip and departs |
Uh-huh |
