She, shining like a star, like a sun, like a moon
and all that other stuff you know
I wanted everything, she gave me everything
but everything is never enough
what I mean is, she, my kind of fluff.

Like a star or a sun or a moon
like the surface of a still lagoon
like a stainless steel spoon she's shining

reach out to turn her on
she fills the room and hijinks ensue
in dark nights of the soul
I don't mind saying that I think I've had one or two
tried to tell her, she already knew

like an incandescent wish
like a silverplate chaffing dish 
like a Siamese fighting fish she's shining
like a blinding brilliant thing 
like a turned on electric ring
like a novel by Stephen King she's shining
ooh ah, ooh ooh ooh ah
glowing in her jar 
just like a little piece of star

ooh ooh ooh ooh ah

like a blue electric shock
like a radioactive rock 
like the hands of a digital clock she's shining
like the Thames or the Rhine or the Nile
like a luminescent radio dial
like a brand new ceramic tile she's shining
ooh she's shining, ooh she's shining
in this endless night 
she's my little misguiding light
