B Movie — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

I found america hiding in the corner of my wallet

Its a well kept secret, thought that I had better swallow it

Before they make me spit out the truth

Before they find youre lying about your youth



B movie, thats all you are to me

Just a soft soap story

Dont want the woman to adore me

You cant stand it when it goes from real to reel

Too real too real

You cant stand it when I throw punch lines you can feel



All the time, theres a rule book in brittania

That no one ever waives

And everybodys on the make

Its not your heart I want to break



Turn out the lights

Im thinking that I want to go to sleep now

Just give me a promise that Im supposed to keep now

I dont want some fool asking me why

When I find youre finally making me cry
