Sparks - Veronica Lake текст песни

Исполнитель: Sparks

альбом: The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte


There's a war going on, can't make a mistake
All the girls are on the line, they must stay awake
Every B-29, so much at stake
But they're working on the line, 'til they all ache
And they all do want to be Veronica Lake
But that peekaboo-y hair, it's a big mistake
As the foreman has to yell, "Put on the brake!"
Yet another girl caught, Veronica Lake

And the lover boys have gone, so much at stake
As they rivet and drill, then they take a break
Reading movie star mags, they will imitate
Yes, the one they all adore, Veronica Lake
And that peekaboo-y hair, it's a big mistake
Once again, Foreman yells, "Put on the brake"
As the blonde wavy hair, millions partake
And they fancy themselves, Veronica Lake
In the midst of a war
We all must partake of our fantasy world, give us all a break
And their fantasy girl who they imitate
Is their number one choice, Veronica Lake

Veronica Lake

Veronica Lake

As the leaders convene, so much is at stake
The assembly has slowed, this we cannot take
There's a problem with their hair, each day we break
'Cause they all want to be, Veronica Lake
Now the government says, "For goodness sake
Get a hold of this girl, Veronica Lake"
And they beg and then plead, "Can you please make"
Your hair slightly less like, Veronica Lake?"
And you'll still get to be, Veronica Lake
Just a little toned down, for the allies' sake
All the girls look to you for the path to take
But that peekaboo-y hair, way too many breaks

She accepts their advice, hair now put in place
Not all swerving on down on her pretty face
She will kill her career
All for the sake of our winning the war, Veronica Lake
Yes, she killed her career, so much at stake
But we're winning the war, now we've caught a break
Still, a casualty of war, Veronica Lake
As Veronica Lake's not Veronica Lake
She's still a pretty girl, make no mistake
But she isn't like before, how my heart aches
Back then, no one would mistake Veronica Lake
For any other girl, Veronica Lake
