Elstree

Lyrics

[Intro] (Action!) [Verse 1] I had a dream on a back lot And saw my life like a long shot Of smiling faces in a picture parade Of all the stills from the films that you made That we would see in the Essoldo After drinking coffee at the Gioconda [Chorus] Elstree, remember me I had a part in a B-Movie I played a man from history Elstree, a-look at me (Oh-oh-oh) Now I work for the BBC (Oh-oh-oh) Life is not what it used to be [Verse 2] I took no dives in the fight scenes I had a stuntman, keeped my suit clean There's no technology to fake-up a song They stop the orchestra if you get it wrong [Chorus] Elstree, remember me I had a part in a B-Movie I played a man from history Elstree, a-look at me (Oh-oh-oh) Now I work for the BBC (Oh-oh-oh) Life is not what it used to be [Bridge] (Elstree) [Verse 3] They made a field into a war zone I beat the enemy on my own All the bullets just went over my head There's no reality and no one dead in [Chorus] Elstree, remember me I had a part in a B-Movie I played a man from history [Outro 1] Elstree (Oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Elstree (Oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Elstree Elstree (Oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh) Elstree [Outro 2] (Cut!)
