lyrics

If my life were a film
It would be made by Myazaki
I’d be following a phantom
‘Round the hills of Nagasaki

I’d be painting on the sky
Riding in a Taxi
I’d be flying through the air
So the Ohmu couldn’t catch me

If my life were a film
I would be talking to Scorcese
About who would be the leading man
And who is going to play me

I want someone pretty cool
Someone a bit sexy
I can kiss like Valentino
I’ll be dancing like Gene Kelly

Because I...

I get up
I look good
I can smile
When all I see is
My life on Film
This is my life on film

If my life was a film
It would be made in black and white
And we’d be walking down the red carpet
Amid the flashing lights

We’d be standing in the foyer
And there’s bound to be a fight
If my life were a film then this is
The premiere night

If my life were a film
Then I wouldn’t have to live it
I could watch it with the rest of you
And be a better critic

Tell you how the story goes
And why the butler did it
If my life is a film then this
Must be the final edit

about

SUZERAIN UK

Claustrophobic alternative rock band with a punk edge that’s not afraid to look a synthesiser in the eye.
