B Movie Lyrics by Elvis Costello

B Movie Lyrics

    I found america hiding in the corner of my wallet
    It's a well kept secret, thought that i had better swallow it
    Before they make me spit out the truth
    Before they find you're lying about your youth

    B movie, that's all you are to me
    Just a soft soap story
    Don't want the woman to adore me
    You can't stand it when it goes from real to reel
    Too real too real
    You can't stand it when i throw punch lines you can feel

    All the time, there's a rule book in brittania
    That no one ever waives
    And everybody's on the make
    It's not your heart i want to break

    Turn out the lights
    I'm thinking that i want to go to sleep now
    Just give me a promise that i'm supposed to keep now
    I don't want some fool asking me why
    When i find you're finally making me cry
