Lyrics Joe Jackson

Joe Jackson

Chrome

You always were the special one

The breath of air, the heap of fun

You always had a kind of light

That might dismay, or might delight

I thought about you all along

I used to doubt you

Guess I was wrong

Now you shine like chrome

You're a star and bold like chrome

And from Tokyo to Rome

We're all aware of you

Now you shine like chrome

You're so hard and cold like chrome

And I'd like to take you home

But I'm scared of you

It's nice to see you looking well

I know your age, but I won't tell

You always had a kind of glow

You're luminous

But I guess you know

I see it clearly

You're gonna shine

I never really thought you'd be mine

Now you shine like chrome

You're a star and bold like chrome

And from Tokyo to Rome

We're all aware of you

Now you shine like chrome

You're so hard and cold like chrome

And I'd like to take you home

But I'm scared of you
