Like in the Movies Lyrics by Chrissie Hynde

Stockholm

2014

[Verse 1]
I got you curious
'Cause I can cry on call
I'll be anything you want
Just give me some lines to memorize
You think that I'm serious
You can bend me like a rubber doll
So give me another scene
And lots of tender close ups
[Chorus]
Ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
Ooh, the audience goes home satisfied
'Cause nobody really died
Ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
[Verse 2]
You think this is real time
But these drops drip in slow-mo
From this heart of mine
Cup your hands and catch the overflow
The silent screen tonight
Won't somebody play the piano?
While the protagonist beats her breast
You've all seen the rest
[Chorus]
This isn't gonna end like in the movies
Ooh, the audience goes home satisfied
'Cause nobody really died
Ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
[Bridge]
Happy ending
A Hollywood storyline
Good pretending
But don't fuck with this heart of mine
You say you love me
And I believe that it's true
If you believe me
Then I'll believe you
Then I'll believe you
[Chorus]
But ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
Ooh, the audience goes home satisfied
'Cause nobody really died
Ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
Ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
Ooh, the audience goes home satisfied
'Cause nobody really died
Ooh, this isn't gonna end like in the movies
