Lust (Outstanding Woman)
You're an outstanding woman
You've got intelligence most people couldn't conceive of
You've got multiple degrees
From reputable universities
A first-class honours in philosophy
An MBA from UCL
A med degree from MIT
You're an outstanding woman
You swam the English Channel all on your own
You built a school in Sierra Leone
You work at a soup kitchen on Christmas Eve
And they have to ask you to leave
You're an outstanding woman
You're witty and generous and you make people smile
You recently ran a four-minute mile
You make your own clothes, you're an excellent cook
You paint and you're writing a book
You're an outstanding woman
You're thoughtful and you see other folks' point of view
When friends are hurting they always call you
You run a support group for disabled kids
You raise money for researching SIDS
You're an outstanding woman
And I see you standing there on the landing
And I understand you're outstanding
But honestly, right now I just want to shag
Right now, I'm blind to the brilliance of you
I know you're an outstanding woman
But right now your IQ could be 62!
I just like the smell of your hair
You could be lazy and talent-less for all that I care
Just give me five minutes, or possibly ten
After which time I will value your intellect again
You're an outstanding woman
You're an outstanding woman
I'm keen to talk about American foreign policy
And the inherent hypocrisy in it
Just give me five minutes
