Hot honey sun slow setting
Summer motel pool I'm getting
High downwind of cheap perfume
Ooo, ah
Neon after dark sign flickers
Adult swim in mermaid liquors
Try to recall the old tune
Ooo, ah
The rusty gate swings open
Like a call through endless skies
The masterpiece of Venice Beach
Appears with golden eyes
Barely dressed in his poverty
He wore sweet naivety
The day's white briefs tattered thin
Ooo, ah ah ah
Hot honey sun was my heart
The climax of cupid's art
The way the pool was intimate with him
The neon sheen curves round his form
White as purity itself
The rhinestone peach of Venice Beach
In the pool of the motel
A ray of light in chlorine
Like stars that lose their mooring
And stray from their own story
White clinging to his glory
It's just glitter in the pool
Ooo, ah
Bottle caps and broken glass
Ricocheting light just as
He rose wet and bejeweled
Ooo, ah
The dream it seemed to be concluding
Strangers left now to their brooding
They know in dreams they can be fooled
The rusty gate swings open
In his wake an afterglow
He moved us each in Venice Beach
But his name we'll never know
A ray of light in chlorine
Like stars that lose their mooring
And stray from their own story
White clinging to his glory
It's just glitter in the pool
Ooo
It's just glitter in the pool
Hah!
A ray of light in chlorine
Like stars that lose their mooring
And stray from their own story
White clinging to his glory
It's just glitter in the pool, in the pool
Ooo, ah
Glitter
Glitter
Ooo, ah
Glitter in the pool
Hah, oh
