Black Scorpio Lyrics

    (ian hunter/overend watts)

    Momma's little jewel, just left school.
    Fresh from the nuns who made you.
    I don't know why, but i'm gonna try to re-incelibate you.

    True when i hold you near, and i
    Come even when i'm on the run, and i'm
    Wearing black scorpio faces, when i
    Come in the noonday sun.

    Momma's little jewel you got the rules
    But i'll be the one to educate you
    Take what's mine, take a little time
    But don't bite the hand that makes you

    Laugh in the evening when i
    Catch you in the (?)
    Wearing black scorpio eyes, when i
    Come in the morning sun

    What you want i can't buy
    Why don't you try it my way
    What you look for ain't in the book
    And i'm gonna show you someday

    You won't rise, you won't shine
    You won't bleed if you try, boys
    You got brains if your luck changes
    You'll have to play with my toys

    True when i hold you near, and i
    Come even when i'm on the run, and i'm
    Wearing black scorpio faces, when i
    Come in the noonday sun, and i
    Laugh in the evening when i
    Catch you in the (?)
    Wearing black scorpio faces, when i
    Come in the morning sun

    Momma's, momma's little jewel
    Momma's, momma's little jew-ew-ew-ew-ew
    Momma's, momma's little jewel
    Momma's, momma's little jew-ew-ew-ew-ew
    Momma's, momma's little jewel
    Momma's, momma's little jew-ew-ew-ew-ew
