Ebony beauty, pass this shade the looking glass reflects Then a voice calls me back This is just circumstance, it is not personal Oh no, it never is
Then you ram your hand in your bag for a little friendly substance By the time you're 25 they will say you've gone and blown it By the time you're 35 I must confide you will have blown them all
Right on cue just act surprised When they invite you to take your curtain call You climbed China's wall, your curtain call
I have done what I've done and it has the ultimate consequence
Then a voice calls me back This is not business, no it's more like spiritual Is that what it is?
Then you ram your hand in your bag for a little protection By the time you're 25 They will say you've gone and blown it By the time you're thirty five I must confide you will have blown them all
Right on cue just act surprised When they invite you to take your curtain call You climbed China's wall, your curtain call They closed China's wall, curtain call
Ebony beauty, pass this shade the looking glass reflects
