Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Arabella's got some interstellar gator skin boots

And a Helter Skelter 'round her little finger, and I ride it endlessly

She's got a Barbarella silver swimsuit

And when she needs to shelter from reality

She takes a dip in my daydreams

My days end best when the sunset gets itself behind

That little lady sittin' on the passenger side

It's much less picturesque without her catchin' the light

The horizon tries but it's just not as kind on the eyes

As Arabella, oh

As Arabella

Just might've tapped into your mind and soul

You can't be sure

...

Arabella's got a '70s head

But she's a modern lover, it's an exploration

She's made of outer space

And her lips are like the galaxys edge

And her kiss the colour of a constellation fallin' into place

My days end best when the sunset gets itself behind

That little lady sittin' on the passenger side

It's much less picturesque without her catchin' the light

The horizon tries but it's just not as kind on the eyes

...

As Arabella, oh

As Arabella

Just might've tapped into your mind and soul

You can't be sure

(That's magic) in a cheetah print coat

(Just a slip) underneath it, I hope

(Askin' if) I can have one of those

(Organic) cigarettes that she smokes

(Wraps her lips) 'round a Mexican Coke

(Makes you wish) that you were the bottle

(Takes a sip) of your soul, and it sounds like

...

Just might've tapped into your mind and soul

You can't be sure

...
