My Lovely Jezebel

She attracts dark rumors Travels in blue and other humors Each time she walks in the room Brings in much more than you'd assume Ooo, I looked in her eyes and out through that window I fell She's my lovely Jezebel She neglects you and then ransacks you so very well She suspects your sweet confection When you talk in contradictions Then she walks without detection Overrules all your objections Ooo, I looked in her eyes and through that window I fell She's my lovely Jezebel Man is a miserable ape and sad pile of sticks He comes out swinging, gets in a few licks The longest of drum rolls with the shortest of tricks So she attracts bad intentions She distracts all my attention With her ways and her wild inventions The facts of life they forgot to mention Ooo, I looked in her eyes and through that window I fell She's my lovely Jezebel She neglects you and then she ransacks you so very well --- My Lovely Jezebel - Elvis Costello
