Some boy you are
to take me by the hand
through an elevator
Got a little red line
that tells you, boy
where the razor's been
You said, girl if you think
you can turn that violator
you'll finally be that woman, yes
finally be that woman
that's been frozen
in that pretty silver gown, yes
And I've never seen blue like the blues he drives
in and around and through me again
I said, I've never seen eyes
like the blues he drives
in and around
and through me again
through me again
through me again
Some boy you are
to wear my colour red
to wear it very proudly
wear it like a lady
who knows how to cross her legs
where the birdie's been
I've never seen blue
like the blues he drives
in and around and through me again
I said I've never seen eyes
like the blues he drives
in and around
and through me again through me again through me
yes, said now la la
say goodbye to those you loved
say
Tori Quotes
"On 'Jackie's Strength' I have two unreleased songs that are coming out as part of the CD [single], as part of the 'Jackie' package. Obviously 'Jackie' is one, and 'Never Seen Blue,' and the third track is called 'Beulah Land.' These two songs were also written for Boys for Pele and recorded for it but weren't right, so I held them, and now they feel current; they feel like their time is now." [TV Guide Online chat - August 5, 1998]
