Life Is No Movie

Dirk Darmstaedter

when your heart is pounding and your head it is on fire
and your body's on the tarmac waiting for trucks to roll by
there're no more bohemians chatting up young girls
leaning on their Cadillacs whistling the Duke of Earl

when you switch the channels all you get is sex and rape
yes, they're disconnecting the telephones
but someone's got it all on tape
the woman on my tv screen her hair it is a mess
and she's saying something about border towns
and this is not a test

so send me an angel who means well
I'm stuck in a situation where words they won't gel
I'm sick of thinking hard and I can hardly stand
and these prescription drugs they're starting to kick in

she said life, it's no movie
it'll end in tragedy and pain
while I sat there fumbling for my keys and the cocaine
she took me to her castle on the southern tip of Spain
she fed me gin & tonics till I'd forgotten from where I came
no man is an island but no girl's a willow tree
when springtime it came rolling round we set our monkeys free
we knocked around Arabia took a boat to Ecuador
we didn't have much money left so they made us swim ashore

so send me an angel who means well
I'm stuck in a no parking zone and my words they won't gel
I'm sick of living large and I can hardly stand
and my prescription drugs they're starting to kick in
so send me an angel who means well
I'm stuck in a situation and my thoughts won't gel
I'm sick of talking loud and i can hardly stand
and these prescription drugs they're starting to kick in
