lyrics

Venus is the light of love that shines
Saturn’s got rings that hold me tight
And the Crescent Moon laughing like a loon
in mid day, hey

They come to me on an empty night
When the street reflects prehistoric light
Come to my rescue, please take me away,
far away, hey hey

Venus, Saturn, the Crescent Moon
Beautiful as not in tune
Shine their light on my dark days
Thank you very kindly for takin’ the time
to see me

They lay me down in a fever sleep
Dry my sweat and massage my feet
Sing sweet songs while they give their love
to me, ohhh

Then the Crescent Moon laughing like a loon
Takes Venus and Saturn to an empty room
As I wake up I can see them drifting away,
Far away, hey hey

Venus, Saturn, the Crescent Moon
Feed me gravy ‘til I’m silver spoon
Needle in my nervous history
Taking their time all over me

Venus, Saturn, the Crescent Moon
Oh so pretty in that shade of blue
Never bad news glad I paid my dues
Thank you very kindly for takin’ the time
to see me
Thank you very kindly for takin’ the time
to free me

Venus, Saturn, the Crescent Moon
Feed me gravy ‘til I’m silver spoon
Needle in my nervous history
Taking their time all over me

Venus, Saturn, the Crescent Moon
Oh so pretty in that kind of blue
Never bad news glad I’ve paid my dues
Thank you very kindly for takin’ the time
to see me
Thank you very kindly for takin’ the time
to free me
