Arabella (Live)
[Verse 1]
Arabella's got some interstellar gator-skin boots
And a Helter Skelter 'round her little finger
And I ride it endlessly
She's got a Barbarella silver swimsuit
And when she needs to shelter from reality
She takes a dip in my daydreams
[Chorus]
My days end best when the sunset gets itself behind
That little lady sittin' on the passenger side
It's much less picturesque without her catchin' the light
The horizon tries, but it's just not as kind on the eyes
As Arabella, oh
Arabella
[Post-Chorus]
Just might've tapped into your mind and soul
You can't be sure
[Verse 2]
Arabella's got a '70s head
But she's a modern lover, it's an exploration
She's made of outer space
And her lips are like the galaxy's edge
And her kiss the colour of a constellation
Fallin' into place
[Chorus]
My days end best when the sunset gets itself behind
That little lady sittin' on the passenger side
It's much less picturesque without her catchin' the light
The horizon tries, but it's just not as kind on the eyes
As Arabella, oh
As Arabella
[Post-Chorus]
I just might've tapped into your mind and soul
You can't be sure
[Bridge]
That's magic in a cheetah print coat
Just a slip underneath it, I hope
Asking if I can have one of those
Organic cigarettes that she smokes
Wraps her lips 'round a Mexican Coke
Makes you wish that you were the bottle
Takes a sip of your soul and it sounds like
Woo!
[Instrumental Break]
[Post-Chorus]
I just might've tapped into your mind and soul
You can't be sure
[Spoken Outro]
I'd like to play for you now, ladies and gentlemen
The, uh, title track from our new LP
Entitled, "Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino"
