Angel Lyrics - Singles - Joe Jackson

Here's a young one 

Hey, Rufus 

How's the rain on the rhubarb? 

You wanna go out with me? 

(Yeah, I know we're out 

It's, like, a figure of speech) 

All you need is a real girl guide 

Give it up and come inside 

Slip the leash 

Shake it loose 

Bit the peach 

Suck the juice 

What did you call me? 

(Angel) 

What was that again? 

(Angel) 

Ave gloriosa virginum regina 

Vitis generosa, vite medicina 

Clemencie resina 

Ave copiosa gracie piscina 

Carnis maculosa mund' illum sentina 

Mundicie cortina (Hail, glorious queen of virgins, noble vine,elixir of life, resin of mercy. 

Hail, abundant pool of grace, cleanse him of the filthy dregs of the flesh in the basin of putrification) 

Hey chicken 

Is that your girl? 

Bet she lays like a lump 

What's your poison - lemonade? 

Velveteen or a razor blade? 

You wanna walk in the dark with me 

To a place where no-one sees? 

Kiss the glove 

Pretty please 

You wanna pray? 

On your knees 

What did you call me? 

(Angel) 

Say it again 

(Angel) 

Claritate radiosa, stella matutina, 

Brevitate legis glossa, perte lex divina 

Irradiat doctrina 

Venustate vernans rosa, sine culpe spina 

Caritate viscerosa aurem buc inclina, 

Serves ill'a a ruina (Morning star, radiant in brigtness, yourself a gloss on the brevity of the law, through you the Divine Law illuminates with its teaching, O rose blooming with loveliness, having no thorn of sin, with inward love incline your ear hither and save him from destruction) 

Hey sailor 

How's the steam in the stovepipe?
