Lyrics
Louise Brooks
Copyright 2003 Paul Hayes BMI
There is nothing you can do when the void stares back at you.
Louise Brooks, Louise Brooks, you got her hair, you got her looks.
Lulu wants, Lulu gets, burning eyes, skintight dress.
Flesh so pale, blood-red lip, scarlet nails, watch 'em rip.
You knew right there that I was hooked
when you cut your hair like Louise Brooks.
Followed you since times long gone, knew your name in Babylon.
You sacrificed a million men, I wished that I was one of them.
Recognized you from afar, sitting in a lonely bar.
Looking bored, dressed in black.
Caught your eye, you looked right back.
There is nothing you can do, when the void stares back at you.
Louise Brooks, Louise Brooks, you got her hair was all it took.
Lulu wants, Lulu gets, wrap me in your decadence.
Hurry now, before I falter, let me worship at your alter.
You knew right there that I was hooked,
when you cut your hair like Louise Brooks.
Kisses that remove tattoos, breaking all the old taboos.
Made a list of all my sins, you made me do them all again.
I raise a shaky glass or two to every girl who looks like you.
Threw my happy life away, left me where I am today.
There is nothing you can do when the void stares back at you.
