Behold a Lady
Sophistophone, aristocrats
Distinguished dogs, clean up your acts
Pull up your pants, ladies and gents
Please, act like you got some sense
You know what I really wanna know?
Where do all the good girls go?
What clubs they hang at?
Behold a lady
I see you standin' on the wall
Clap, clap, you deserve it all
Behold a lady (candy-coated unicorns are quite hard to find)
I see you standin' on the wall (the classic lady, a rare breed indeed)
Clap, clap, you deserve it all (is that make and model discontinued?)
Today I might snow, tomorrow I'll rain
3000's always changing but you stay the same
And I need that, hey I need that (in my life)
When I feel washed up and inadequate
And throw all my songs away, no matter how mad I get
You make me smile, you make me smile
You make me smile, you make me
Oh, you're the anchor that holds me down
When my ship is sinking
You won't let me drown and I'm grateful (oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Behold a lady (maybe they disappeared with the dinosaurs?)
(Oh, but that's such a Big Bang Theory)
I see you standin' on the wall (maybe they're still around?)
Clap, clap, you deserve it all (but only to be seen with appreciative eyes)
Behold a lady (maybe they were taken for granted and lost all their magic)
I see you standin' on the wall (oh, oh awful)
Clap, clap, you deserve it all (oh, so tragic)
Yo' mama's old fashioned (fashioned)
Yo' daddy don't play (don't play)
You'll always be this lovely
'Cause they raised you that way
Hallelujah
(Thank ya Jesus, thank ya Lord
Thank ya Jesus, thank ya Lord
Thank ya Jesus, thank ya Lord)
You're not extra-extra, you're so plain Jane
The ying to my yang, darlin'
You've got that thang and you know it
But yet you don't and that's what's so cool
You don't say too much, but when you do it's profound
In the street you hold your head high
At home you get low down for me
(Can't get no lower, can't get no lower, can't get no lower, yeah)
Oh, you're the anchor that holds me down
When my ship is sinking, you won't let me drown, ah-ah, ah, ah
Sad, but one day our kids will have to visit museums
To see what a lady looks like
Behold (so if you find one, I beg you, hold her tight) (behold)
A lady (yes, if you spot one, good sir, treat her right) (a lady)
I see you standing on the wall (Benjamin Andre, signing off) (I see you standing on the wall)
Clap, clap, you deserve it all (thanks a million) (clap, clap, you deserve it all)
(Good luck and goodnight)
Behold (behold)
A lady (a lady)
I see you standing on the wall (I see you standing on the wall)
Clap, clap, you deserve it all (you deserve it all)
Behold (behold)
A lady
I see you standing on the wall (I see you standing on there)
Clap, clap, you deserve it all (lookin' so pretty)
Behold (behold)
A lady (ah, ah, ah)
I see you standing on the wall
