Thomas Dolby - Screen Kiss Lyrics
Miller time at the bar where all the English meetShe used to drink in the hillsonly now she drinks in the valleyswhere every road has a name like Beachwood Avenue, or so it seemsa Croydon girl could really hope to find a homebut with a thousand miles of real estate to choose fromyou begin to see the value of your freedom...The moon is bright in the haze above old Hollywooddeer look down from the hillsit's three o'clock in the morningpill in hand you can hear his golden surfer boyscrying out mummy won't come out of the bathroomand you'd hoped he'd say he's sorry if he hit youbut he's buried in the screenplay of his featureScreen kiss, one screen kissstraight from a film I forget who was inscreen kiss, one screen kissblue filter lens in a pool of vaselinebut all the rushes look the sameonly there's a movie I wouldn't pay to see againif it's the one with him inYou and I could be a mile above the earth tremorshold to me and we'll climbyou could sneak out while he's sleepingsuicide in the hills above old Hollywoodis never going to change the worldnever change it overnightany more than the invention of the six-gunany more than the discovery of Radiumor California tipping in the ocean
