MP3 - "B Movie", "No Masters" 1984 - LP to CD recording

B Movie

I want my life, to be a B movie
I want the story to be happy in the end
It's nice to be, the hero of the story
I can be president, on that you can depend

I could be the cop on the street, that fight all the criminals
I could the billionaire, that own all the companies
I could be the cowboy that fight all the Indians
I could be the general, that orders the big armies

I come home from work all the day, turn on my TV
B movies aren't the truth, but I don't care anyway
I just want to be entertained, kick the shoes off my feet
In this film the bad is the good, even the CIA, so...

I want my life, to be a B movie
I want the story to be happy in the end
It's nice to be, the hero of the story
I can be president, on that you can depend

I've learned from movies that we can put our trust in leaders
Some people think I'm crazy but, a lot of people think that way
Our leader's a class B hero, and he can do no wrong
If we get in a war some time, he'd come right through and save the day

Intellectuals discuss what they're thinking,
I'd rather discuss what I'm drinking,
And to be on the silver screen has always been my scheme
Well, I don't care!!! If the truth is stranger than fiction
'Cause I don't know what t means, I go right ahead and dream

I want my life, to be a B movie
I want the story to be happy in the end
It's nice to be, the hero of the story
I can be president, on that you can depend

I choose to be conservative, though I've nothing to conserve
On paper the system works, but I'm no better of than before
I'll just choose my movie world, and sit right down and dream
Let someone else take care of me, and I won't have to think no more

I want to be the big though guy, that everyone fears and loves
If you get in my way, you pay, better watch what you say
Think twice before you shoot me down, strike me I get you too

Before you know it in a very short time, we both be blown away, so...

I want my life, to be a B movie
I want the story to be happy in the end
It's nice to be, the hero of the story
I can be president, on that you can depend

I want my life to be - a B movie!!!
I want my life to be - a B movie!!!
I want my life to be - a B movie!!!
I want my life to be....a B movie!!!

I want my life, to be a B movie
I want the story to be happy in the end
It's nice to be, the hero of the story
I can be president, on that you can depend
I can be president, on that you can depend
I can be president, on that you can depend
