i know a movie star, i've got her plastered to my wall, just like we're dear old friends, like she already knows me, she's as perfect as she seems, lifts me right out the mezzanine, i finally fell in love, i'd been waiting forever... four, three, two, one, when at the barrel of a gun, keep my head way down, stay out i'll stay in, half dead half numb, she's enough to make me warm, it's all so safe and sound... lie back and fast asleep, if you could see what i could see, drip drop a lovely dream... goddamn you movie star, can't you just play a minute more, we'd be the best of friends, you could stay here forever... four, three, two, one, when at the barrel of a gun, keep my head way down, stay out i'll stay in, half dead and half numb, she's enough to make me warm, it's all so safe and sound... she will be sweet on me, just like a mystery, it's not so hard to see, if i'm not mistaken, she comes from far away (far... far away), gets closer everyday (everyday), and all that i can say (can say), she's all i want and all that i live for... four, three, two, one, when at the barrel of a gun, keep my head way down, stay out i'll stay in, half dead half numb, she's enough to make me warm, it's all so safe and sound...
