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
