Screen Kiss

Miller time at the bar where all the English meet
 She used to drink in the hills
 Only now she drinks in the valleys
 Where every road has a name like Beachwood Avenue
 or so it seems
 A Croydon girl could really hope to find a home
 But with a thousand miles of real estate to choose from
 You begin to see the value of your freedom...
 The moon is bright in the haze above old Hollywood
 And deer look down from the hills
 And it's three o'clock in the morning
 Pill in hand you can hear his golden surfer voice
 Crying out, mummy won't come out of the bathroom
 And you'd hoped he'd say he's sorry if he hit you
 but he's buried in the screenplay of his feature
 Screen kiss, one screen kiss
 Straight from a film I forget who was in
 Screen kiss, one screen kiss
 Blue filter lens, a pool of vaseline
 But all the rushes look the same
 Only there's a movie I wouldn't pay to see again
 If it's the one with him in
 You and I could be a mile above the earth tremors
 Hold to me and we'll climb
 You could sneak out while he's sleeping
 Suicide in the hills above old Hollywood
 Is never gonna change the world
 Change the world overnight
 Any more than the invention of the six-gun - child
 Any more than the discovery of Radium,
 Or California tipping in the ocean
 Screen kiss, one screen kiss ...
