(Verse) 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 nighttime one today So it suits the mood of your show What can I do? Nothing… my sparrow flew
(Pre-Chorus) Oh, what can I do? Life is beautiful but you don’t have a clue Sun and I shine blue The magnificence… it don’t make sense to you
(Chorus) Black beauty… Black beauty…
(Verse) I paint the house black My wedding dress black leather too You have no room for light, live 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 What can I do? To turn your heart or get through you?
(Pre-Chorus) Oh, what can I do? Life is beautiful but you don’t have a clue Sun and I shine blue The magnificence… it don’t make sense to you
(Chorus) Black beauty… Black beauty…
(Bridge) Black beauty… Black beauty… Black beauty… Black beauty, baby Black beauty, baby
(Pre-Chorus) Oh, what can I do? Life is beautiful but you don’t have a clue Sun and I shine blue The magnificence… it don’t make sense to you
