Gilbert O'Sullivan

A Very Extraordinary Sort Of Girl

She could take a leaf upon a tree and turn it into gold

Just as she could take a piece of rope which on its own will fold

You see, she's a very extraordinary sort of girl

Who is just the same as you and she

In every way with quality she's perfect

But if you take her out

Remember she can break your heart in two

But she'll put it back, glue it together, make it look brand new

You see, she's a very extraordinary sort of girl

Why don't you take a stone and eat it just as if it were a cake

You could be surprised to see the sort of things that she can bake

You see, she's a very extraordinary sort of girl

Who is just the same as you and she

In every way with quality she's perfect

But if you take her out

Remember she can break your heart in two

But she'll put it back, glue it together, make it look brand new

You see, she's a very extraordinary sort of female, woman
