put me in a movie

I want the action and cut

the confident strut

the not-knowing-what's-what

making me tut

 

I want the blinding lights

the disturbed nights

the cat fights

making me right

 

I want the drunken slur

the not-you-it's-her

the lazy chauffeur

making me blur

 

I want the beauty not the brains

the heartaches and the pain

the work and the strain

making me faint

 

I don't want the lights

I don't want the fights

I don't want the pain

I don't want to feign

 

this life that I dream of

that millions desire

I think I'd be better off

staying the little liar
