Beloved Movie Star — текст песни (Stan Ridgway)

My beloved movie star

Theres more than cold cream in your jar

When eyebrows arch and lips are dry

When youre alone at night, you cry





Stuntmen make you feel secure

Wrap you up in soft allure

Your key lights bright, your close-ups now

This picture could tank, but youll make out somehow





Can you hear the surf in malibu

The red tide there is calling you

You are the part, why dont they know

Remember tallulah, janet, and garbo





Behind you now

See someone there

She looks like you

With blonder hair

A newer one

With a younger glow

So you just cry all night

In your bungalow





My beloved movie star

Now I know just where you are

Up on a hill, in the backseat of a car

Youre my beloved movie star
