Spielberg Sweethearts

by The Zangwills

on Spielberg Sweethearts (2019)

[Verse 1]
Head full of pick-up lines
Lungs full of cigarette smoke
Her make up underlines
His nervous laugh and dodgy jokes

[Pre-Chorus]
One small step forward just leads to twelve steps back
He hoards his empty cider cans in his rucksack

[Chorus]
Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper but he's caught the eye of the queen bee
Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper but he's caught the eye of the queen bee

[Verse 2]
He wears an aftershave
So cheap it nearly makes her choke
But she smiles on through it all
As he hides behind a hair gel cloak

[Pre-Chorus]
Although her heels are high, he feels as low as the Empire State
Spielberg Sweethearts on a plastic garden chair drunken date, oh-oh

[Chorus]
Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper but he's caught the eye of the queen bee
Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper but he's caught the eye of the queen bee, oh no

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper but he's caught the eye of the queen bee
Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper, but he's caught the eye of the queen bee

Are we on the set of a film, because it doesn't seem real to me
He's just a pauper but he's caught the eye of the queen bee
