My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I’m sure.
She smiled at me at the meeting.
She was with that Mr Key.
But I won’t lose no sleep on that,
‘Cause I’ve been on ‘ZB.

You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
I was off my face in a crowded place,
And I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause my career is so screwed.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Blind drunk,
And I don’t think that I’ll see her again,
‘Cause come Monday morning my career’s at an end.

You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
I was off my face in a crowded place,
And I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause my career is so screwed.

You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
There must a hundred women with smiles on their faces,
When they think about how I’m through.
But it’s time to face the end,
I will never work again.

Next week, a Bowie Classic: Cat People (Putting Out the Fire with Gasoline)
