VENUS ENVY
Don’t want no marble statue smooth and cold as
db4
ice
Not some man - made god dess cus to cut and spliced
db4
Don’t need no great big set of charms to tempt my heart
eb4 Eb
Oh no prefer the
feel of some thing real over plastic art
Well Aphrodite’s got grace
but she ain’t the face
I know and I love ‘Cause I got
blood in these veins while she’s some spooky dame
Lost in the heavens above
Why do you wanna be Venus
When your light shines brighter than the brightest star
Why do you wanna be anyone else other than who you are
Why do you wanna be Venus
When you’re so much more than she could ever be
Yeah I feel like I’m losing you
Come back to me
Don’t want no hand-made inlaid porcelain china doll
bb4
Oh no
Not some babe who comes un stitched before every mirror
on the wall Yeah De
eb4 C#
Milo’s some piece but no thanks please
Not my cup of tea... Oh no
‘Cause I want flesh and bone and not some block of stone
Lying in bed next to me
Why do you wanna be Venus
When your light shines brighter than the brightest star
Why do you wanna be anyone else other than who you are
Why do you wanna be Venus
When you’re so much more than she could ever be
Yeah I feel like I’m losing you
Blame it on those dippy dreams of beauty queens
Who kowtow to the pressure
Prescribing to the point of view that bigger is better
Yea those tattooed lips those vacuumed hips this
whole insanity
Remember what you do you do for you and not for me
Venus
When your light shines brighter than the brightest star
Why do you wanna be anyone else other than who you are
Why do you wanna be Venus
When you’re so much more than she could ever be
Yeah I feel like I’m losing you
Come back to me...
Come back to me
Baby please come back to me
Come back yeah
