The Belle Of St. Mark

The Belle of St. Mark was a frail but a passionate creature
Ebony hair and eyes a deep blue-green
The Belle of St Mark wore clothes that belonged 2 his father
Even though he was only 17

CHORUS:
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
It tears me apart whenever I hear him cry
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die

U can tell from expressions that he makes public
That he suffers from a badly broken heart
He smiles as he feeds the afternoon pigeons
But he cries as he walks the night streets of St. Mark

CHORUS

The Belle of St. Mark, he don't talk 2 strangers, he's so mysterious
His erotic persuasion provokes me like no other man
The fire I have 4 him is undoubtedly serious
I need 2 make him see that he needs love 2 forget
And if anyone can help him, I can
I can help, I can help U

His Paris hair, it blows in the warm Parisian air
That blows whenever his Paris hair is there
The woman that hurt him surely must have trouble sleeping
Cuz the Belle of St. Mark is a beauty extraordinaire

Oh, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
It tears me apart whenever I hear him cry
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die

Ooh, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
It tears me apart whenever I hear him cry
Ooh, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die
And if he don't... I'll die

Noon Rendezvous

I've been wondering what 2 wear
I love our noon rendezvous
I know U tell me U missed me
And I want 2 make love 2 U

Your words, they intoxicate me
I shiver each time that U speak
How much more can I endure, my love?
The sound of your voice makes me weak

If my bodily functions operate
This way when U just call my name
I'd hate 2 see when we are finally
Playing that nasty love game

Your words, they intoxicate me
I shiver each time that U speak
How much more can I endure, my love?
The sound of your voice makes me weak

The words are all over your face, my love
What shall U or shall I do?
U could show me some new tricks, my love
I'd love 2 be taught by U

I've been wondering what 2 wear
I love our noon rendezvous

Oliver's House

I heard this afternoon from the neighborhood [slut, Deborah]
She said Oliver is leaving soon so he can make a scene

CHORUS:
We're gonna have fun, Oliver's house
Make a lot of white noise
Fun, Oliver's house
Play with the white boys

Last June, Oliver threw a party 4 his girl, Louise
She got drunk and called me a bitch just cuz I kissed him

CHORUS

Fun, Oliver's house {x2}

Oliver's got a swimming pool, a piano in his bathroom
We took turns throwing down, we took turns throwing up

Gonna have fun, Oliver's house
Make a lot of white noise
Fun, Oliver's house
Play with the white boys

Fun, Oliver's house
Make a lot of white noise
Fun, Oliver's house
Play with the white boys

U should see his mother's room, she's got so many fine clothes
Oliver, he dressed me up and then he undressed me slowly
Oliver is so weird but he knows how 2 play guitar
I'm a sucker 4 a major chord, a ride in an open car

We're gonna have fun, Oliver's house
Fun, Oliver's house {x3}
We're gonna have fun
Fun {x27}

Next Time Wipe The Lipstick Off Your Collar

U don't have 2 send me flowers like U used 2 do
U don't have 2 buy me candy, I'll still be your fool
All I ask is 4 a little decency and class
Next time wipe the lipstick off your collar

U don't have 2 take me dancing, our backyard will do
We don't have 2 eat 2 fancy, hamburgers are cool
I don't care if U stay out until the break of dawn
Next time wipe the lipstick off your collar

Can't U understand I want a true love man?
Can't U comprehend I want a lover, not a friend?

I don't care 4 sugar-coated flattery, french kiss will suffice
Blame our sex on your run-down battery, holding U is nice
I know when U're lying baby, there's no need 2 scream
There's no need 2 shout
Next time wipe the lipstick off your collar

If U weren't so tired baby, we'd be on the floor
We'd be makin' love right now, ooh
Next time wipe the lipstick off your collar

The Glamorous Life

She wears a long fur coat of mink
Even in the summertime
Everybody knows from the coy little wink
The girl's got a lot on her mind

She's got big thoughts, big dreams
And a big brown Mercedes sedan
What I think this girl, she really wants
Is 2 be in love with a man

She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
She don't need a man's touch
She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
Without love, it ain't much

She saw him standing in the section marked
"If U have 2 ask, U can't afford it" lingerie
She threw him bread and said "Make me scream"
In the dark, what could he say

Boys with small talk and small minds
Really don't impress me in bed
She said I need a man's man baby, diamonds and furs
Love would only conquer my head

She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
She don't need a man's touch
She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
Without love, it ain't much

They made haste in the brown sedan
They drove 2 55 Secret Street
They made love and by the 7th wave
She knew she had a problem

She thought real love is real scary
Money only pays the rent
Love is 4 ever and that's all your life
Love is heaven sent - it's glamorous

Lead the glamorous life
She don't need a man's touch
She's want 2 lead the glamorous life
Without love, it ain't much

CHORUS:
She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
She don't need a man's touch
She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
Without love, it ain't much, it ain't much

Lead the glamorous life
She don't need a man's touch
She wants 2 lead the glamorous life
Without love, it ain't much, it ain't much

CHORUS {x3}
