I paint my nails black.

I dye my hair a darker shade...

of brown,

because 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 what a day,

so it suits the mood of your soul...

Ohhh, what can I do?

Nothing, my sparrow blue.

Ohhhhh, what can I do?

Life is beautiful,

but you don't have a clue.

Sun and ocean blue,

they're magnificent,

it don't make sense to you.

Black beauty.

Ohhh oh oh.

Black beauty.

Ohhh 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,

they seem like cherries in the spring.

Darling,

you can't let everything seem so dark blue.

But, ohhh...

what can I do,

to turn you on,

or get through you?

Ohhh, what can I do?

Life is beautiful,

but you don't have a clue.

Sun and ocean blue,

they're magnificent,

it don't make sense to you.

Black beauty,

Ohhhh.

Black beauty,

ohhhh....

Black beauty,

ohhhh....

Black beauty,

ohhhh....

Black bea-u-uty,

ohhhh-oh-oh-oh-oh....

Black beauty baby...

Black beauty baby...

Ohhhh.... 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,

Ohhhh.

Black beauty,

ohhhh....

Black beauty,

ohhhh....

Black beauty,

ohhhh....
