Lyrics

Pearl necklace

She's really upset with me again
I didn't give her what she likes
I don't know what to tell her
Don't know what to say
Everything got funky last night

She was really bombed
And I was really blown away
Until I asked her what she wanted
And this is what she had to say:
A pearl necklace
She wanna pearl necklace
She wanna pearl necklace

She gets a charge out of bein' so weird
Digs gettin' downright strange
But I can keep a handle on anything
Just this side of deranged

She was gettin' bombed
And I was gettin' blown away
And she held it in her hand
And this is what she had to say:
A pearl necklace
She wanna pearl necklace
She wanna pearl necklace

She's so cold, as pure as the driven slush
And that's not jewelry she's talkin'about, [see notes]
It really don't cost that much

She was gettin' bombed
And I was gettin' blown away
And she took it in her hand
And this is what she had to say:
A pearl necklace
She wanna pearl necklace
She wanna pearl necklace
