I've Got A Lot On My Mind

I’ve Got A lot On My Mind
(David Olney, John Hadley)

Painted toenails pointing towards the heavens
A whiff of perfume 20 bucks an ounce
The ancient interplay of flesh and muscle
How smooth the move, the swing, the sway, the bounce
I’ve got a lot on my mind

The fascinating flutter of an eyelash
The spell is cast, the silken web is spun
A gesture of the hand and mountains crumble
A movement of the hip and I’m undone
I’ve got a lot on my mind

I guess you’ve prob’ly heard it said
I’m a lazy so and so
But there’s a lot going on inside my head
You don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know

The careless way her hair falls on her shoulder
The pouted lips, the devastating smile
The beauty and the power and the danger
Cleopatra’s floating down the Nile
I’ve got a lot on my mind
