Just like flamingos look the same So me and you, just we two got to search for something new Far beyond the pale horizon Some place near the desert strand Where my Studebaker takes me That's where I'll make my stand but wait Can't you see that Holzer mane? What's her name Virginia Plain

O título de “Virginia Plain” foi inspirado por uma pintura feita por Bryan Ferry quando ainda era estudante de arte.
Na obra original, Ferry retratou um grande maço de cigarros Virginia Slims com a imagem da celebridade Andy Warhol, Baby Jane Holzer, na capa.
A pintura mostrava Baby Jane Holzer posicionada no centro de um plano simples, o que deu nome à canção.
O uso da marca Virginia Slims na arte de Ferry reflete a influência da cultura pop e da moda dos anos 1970 na criação da música.
A referência a Baby Jane Holzer, ícone da cena artística de Andy Warhol, destaca a conexão entre a banda e o movimento artístico da época.
