Black Cars

Under the cover of night
She crawls into sight
Her skin is cold china white
She's a dark angel wearing dark glasses
Dark shadows under long false lashes
The night exposes the cracks
She wears her makeup like wax
To hide every scratch
'Cause she a dark angel
Riding dark horses
Sitting pretty in her dim lit covers
I say Black cars look better in the shade
She smears her lipstick on right before she sleeps
For all those phantom lovers in her dreams
She smokes them french cigarettes
In cocktail gloves and astrapless dress
She cuts a perfect silhouette
But she's a dark angel wearing dark glasses
A fading beauty as the night timepasses
I say Black cars look better in the shade
Black cars look better in the shade
