The Long Blondes – Lust In The Movies Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 19 Second

A svelte young man, eighteen lovers to his name.
Well if the rumours are true then eighteen lovers came crawling back again.
I dont feel well.
Ive got this rattling in my chest.
My doctor said that I should give it up because Im clinically obsessed.

I know you think youre in the movies.
Youre in the movies that dont wanna know me.
Well I know all about fear and desire, I know all about lust et cetera.

Edie Sedgwick, Anna Karenina, Arlene Dahl.
Edie Sedgwick, Anna Karenina, Arlene Dahl.
I just want to be a sweetheart.
I just want to be a sweetheart.
I just want to be a sweetheart.

A sweet young girl, dressed to the nines in Cacharel.
Oh, under the weather my heels click together, and following her is hell.
I feel quite ill.
Ive got this rattling in my chest.
My doctor said that I should give it up, I need to get some rest.

Edie Sedgwick, Anna Karenina, Arlene Dahl.
Edie Sedgwick, Anna Karenina, Arlene Dahl.
I just want to be a sweetheart.
I just want to be a sweetheart.
I just want to be a sweetheart.

So never, neve, never try to tell me its a pleasure being alone.
All I have here with me are the records and the books that I own.

Nag, nag, nag.
Nag, nag, nag.
Nag, nag, nag.
Nag, nag, nag.

Edie Sedgwick, Anna Karenina, Arlene Dahl.
Edie Sedgwick, Anna Karenina, Arlene Dahl.
I just want to be a sweetheart.
I just want to be a sweetheart.
I just want to be a sweetheart
