Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stars live in the evening
But the very young need the sun, uh-huh
Pretty baby
You look so heavenly
A neo-nebula from under the sun
I was forming
Some say I had my chance
The boys were falling like an avalanche
[Verse 2]
Yeah-yeah, baby
La Dolce Vita is a magic dance
No one was listening
Pretty baby
P-petite ingenue
Teenage starlet, I fell in love with you
[Verse 3]
You
You, with the comb
You look okay in every way
I, I should have known
You'd look at me and look away, oh
[Verse 4]
Pretty baby
You look so heavenly
A neo-nebula from under the sun
Eyes that tell me
Incense and peppermints
Your looks are larger than life
Long live innocence
[Verse 5]
Petite ingenue
I fell in love with you
[Verse 6]
Pretty baby
I fell in love with you, oh
Pretty baby
Oh, oh
Pretty baby
Oh, I fell in love with you
