She, shining like a star, like a sun, like a moon

and all that other stuff you know

I wanted everything, she gave me everything

but everything is never enough

what I mean is, she, my kind of fluff.



Like a star or a sun or a moon

like the surface of a still lagoon

like a stainless steel spoon she's shining



reach out to turn her on

she fills the room and hijinks ensue

in dark nights of the soul

I don't mind saying that I think I've had one or two

tried to tell her, she already knew



like an incandescent wish

like a silverplate chaffing dish 

like a Siamese fighting fish she's shining

like a blinding brilliant thing 

like a turned on electric ring

like a novel by Stephen King she's shining

ooh ah, ooh ooh ooh ah

glowing in her jar 

just like a little piece of star



ooh ooh ooh ooh ah



like a blue electric shock

like a radioactive rock 

like the hands of a digital clock she's shining

like the Thames or the Rhine or the Nile

like a luminescent radio dial

like a brand new ceramic tile she's shining

ooh she's shining, ooh she's shining

in this endless night 

she's my little misguiding light
