Black Beauty Songtext
von Lana Del Rey

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 it nighttime all today
So it′d suit the mood with 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 ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you

Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah


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 ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you

Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah

Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, baby
Black beauty, baby

Oh, 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, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah
