Maybe we could go to Coney Island,
Maybe I could sing the national anthem,
Buy a white sweater, for the last white day
Of the summer.
Buy my purple wig
For my mermaid video,
Walk back to where we live
In a motel, on Neptune Avenue.
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine,
You say, «Take it off, take it off!»
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine,
You say, «Take it off, take it off!»
Maybe we could go to Suede Tokyo,
Or see Van Halen at their reunion show,
Heavy metal hour on T.V.,
Diamond Dave and Ray late.
And you salute me, Miss America,
Because I am, I am.
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine,
You say, «Take it off, take it off!»
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine,
You say, «Take it off, take it off!»
Maybe we could go to Coney Island,
Maybe I could sing you to sleep.
God bless the universe, God bless the ocean,
God bless you and God bless me,
God bless you and God bless me.
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine,
You say, «Take it off, take it off!»
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine,
You say, «Take it off, take it off!»
