Lyrics
Lust In The Movies
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.
a svelte young man, eighteen lovers to his name
and if the rumours are true then eighteen lovers came crawling back again
i don't feel well, i've got this rattling in my chest
the doctor said that i should give you up because i'm clinically obsessed
in the movies, you're in the movies
you're "in the movies" and you don't want to know me
but i know all about fear and desire, i know all about lust etc
Edie Sedgewick
Anna Karina
Arlene Dahl
i just want to be your sweetheart
a sweet young girl, dressed to the nines in cacharel
i'm under the weather, my heels click together and following her is hell
i feel quite ill, i've got this rattling in my chest
the doctor said that i should give it up, i need to get some rest
so never never never try to tell me it's a pleasure being alone
all i have here with me are the records and the books that i own
nag nag nag
nag nag nag
nag nag nag
NAG NAG NAG...
