Oh, Venus jumped Jack | |||
She smiled and lowered her guard | |||
All of that over barbecue | |||
Saturday night in her backyard | |||
She revealed all she had | |||
To Jack's burning glance | |||
She couldn't refuse | |||
She kicked off her shoes | |||
She was ready for romance | |||
Oh, Venus in the morning | |||
Half dead from the night before | |||
Said goodbye to her sweetheart | |||
When he threw her on the floor | |||
Wild-eyed with love he shouted | |||
To which she just replied | |||
This may be your cup of tea | |||
It's none of mine | |||
She salvaged from the table | |||
An ice bag and a red piece of meat | |||
Grace holds them up in front of Venus | |||
On the lake beside the stable | |||
They cover her politely | |||
From all indelicate eyes | |||
While fish are dancing | |||
With the hopes of glancing | |||
A soapy pink surprise | |||
Years may pass and change the way | |||
We feel about each other | |||
One thing Venus knows | |||
One always needs a lover | |||
They sound a little dirty | |||
But some of her pretty maiden smiles | |||
And some of her heartfelt caresses | |||
Attract the men from many miles | |||
They'd all be glad to take a chance | |||
And explain to her why | |||
But, for the moment | |||
She prefers to share her charms | |||
With two or three at a time | |||

Lyrics
Oh, Venus jumped Jack She smiled and lowered her guard All of that over barbecue Saturday night in her backyard
She revealed all she had To Jack's burning glance She couldn't refuse She kicked off her shoes She was ready for romance
Oh, Venus in the morning Half dead from the night before Said goodbye to her sweetheart When he threw her on the floor Wild-eyed with love he shouted
To which she just replied This may be your cup of tea It's none of mine
She salvaged from the table An ice bag and a red piece of meat Grace holds them up in front of Venus On the lake beside the stable They cover her politely
From all indelicate eyes While fish are dancing With the hopes of glancing A soapy pink surprise
Years may pass and change the way We feel about each other One thing Venus knows One always needs a lover
They sound a little dirty But some of her pretty maiden smiles And some of her heartfelt caresses Attract the men from many miles They'd all be glad to take a chance And explain to her why
But, for the moment She prefers to share her charms With two or three at a time
