Venus de Milo Lyrics

It was a tight toy night, streets so bright
The world was so thin between my bones and skin
There stood another person who was a little surprised
To be face to face with a world so alive

How I fell (did ya feel low?)
Nah (huh?!)
I fell right into the arms
Of Venus de Milo


You know it's all like some new kind of drug
My senses are sharp and my hands are like gloves
Broadway looked so medieval
It seemed to flap like little pages
And I fell sideways laughing with a friend from many stages

How we felt (did ya feel low?)
Not at all (huh?!)
I fell right into the arms
Of Venus de Milo


Suddenly my eyes went so soft and shaky
Oh I knew there was pain but pain is not aching
Then Richie, Richie said:
"Hey man, let's dress up like cops
Think of what we could do!"
But something, something
It said "you better not."

And I fell (did ya feel low?)
Nah (huh?!)
I stood up, walked out of the arms
Of Venus de Milo

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
