Lyrics
B Film
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can't pay today and I never will
I'm on the downside of the double bill
Here's where I am (no surprise)
A Monogram guy with Bela Lugosi eyes
So why did you say "love" is an act of the will?
to see something in me is to fall in love w/ a B film,
Detective on call, Columbia crime;
with you in the hall, and me on the line.
When you come in you're my only income
On Poverty Row, my silver screen someone.
So why did you say "love" is an act of the will?
to see something in me is to fall in love w/ a B film,
Camera's on, I read my lines
Up from the dead, I give you Plan 9
If you can say cut and live with the take
It's not much of a set; it's all I've got time to make.
So why did you say "love" is an act of the will?
to see something in me is to fall in love w/ a B film.
