Babybird’s biggest hit, about a sleazy “photographer” who takes advantage of a naive young “model”. The song is from the “model’s” point of view.
[Intro]
Y o u r e g o r g e o u s
[Verse 1]
Remember that tank-top you bought me?
You wrote "you're gorgeous" on it
You took me to your rented motor car
And filmed me on the bonnet
You got me to hitch my knees up
And pulled my legs apart
You took an Instamatic camera
And pulled my sleeves around my heart
[Chorus]
Because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me through
[Verse 2]
You said my clothes were sexy
You tore away my shirt
You rubbed an ice cube on my chest
Snapped me till it hurt
[Chorus]
Because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me through
[Bridge]
[Verse 3]
You said I wasn't cheap
You paid me twenty pounds
You promised to put me in a magazine
On every table in every lounge
[Chorus]
Because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me through
[Outro]
Because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me
Know you'll get me through
Know you'll get me
Know you'll get me
Know you'll get me through
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me
