Venus Walks

[Verse 1]

Got a girl for me penny boy

In a John Hughes film

Another worldly creature not quite over the hill

I never got a chance to meet her

And I regret it still

[Chorus]

Bestill my trembling hands

True beauty walks on common ground

Venus wearing nothing but a frown

Painted faces in the round and I'm undone

Yeah, I wondered what you looking for, someone?

Or just for fun?

[Verse 2]

The only thing that says I'm a grown-up

Is the date on my passport

Man-child making a mess of it all

Just be careful what you ask for

I never knew if you were coming back

Or if your mum was made up

[Chorus]

Bestill my trembling hands

True beauty walks on common ground

Venus wearing nothing but a crown

Whispers sermons as she slowly makes her way

With a smile that started wars back in the day

Back in the day

[Interlude]

I never knew if you were coming back

Or if your mum was made up

I never knew if you were coming back

Or if your mum was made up

I never knew if you were coming back

Or if your mum was made up

I never knew if you were coming back

Or if your mum was made up

[Verse 3]

Got a girl for me penny boy

In a John Hughes film

Another worldly creature not quite over the hill

I never got a chance to meet her

But one day I will
