I paint my nails black
I dye my hair a darker shade
Light brown
As 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 what 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 eye shade blue
The magnificence
it don't make sense to you

Black beauty
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
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 eye shade blue
The magnificence 
It don't make sense to you

Black beauty
Oh

Black beauty baby

Oh
What can I do
Life is beautiful
But you don't have clue
Sun and eye shade blue
The magnificence 
It don't make sense to you

Black beauty
Oh
