She bends her head just right; so very gracefully
Everybody's watching her; everybody smiles
Those special lights shine hot on her bare shoulders
She never felt so happy in her life
Abdicating, letting go... consent... success!
I've seen the future and it's birdlike
When girls say "yes"
Sometimes she walks like she's stepping right off an airplane
Sometimes she don't walk at all - she just fall down
She thinks so incredibly fast; she'll change the subject too
She thinks so incredibly well of you
She takes you out to the movies
She knows you never ever go
Still everything is copy, yeah every little helps
( you know, like newspaper "copy" )
When girls say "no"
Now you were so beautiful and mine that I couldn't believe it
Hey it was almost brooklyn; it was almost impossible, you see?
But when I walked down the strip arm in arm with you I was terrified
As we walked down the strip arm in arm, temporarily
Now my heart don't want to let you go
And the hole in the roof is a mess
You got to watch for the exit wounds
When girls say "yes"
When girls say yes
When girls say yes
Don't try, don't try
When girls say yes
Now one night I dreamed I died and went to Beverly Hills
My own little piece of Hollywood and the space that it fills
Now one night I dreamed I died and went to Beverly Hills
My own little piece of Hollywood, and the space that it fills
Just one Saturday in heaven
Maybe it's always Saturday in heaven
It's just one big Saturday in heaven
And you'll have time enough at last when you're in heaven
