Lyrics

I’ve watched too many films
They all taste the same
They fall in love, fall apart
Then fall together again.
But love she ain’t that
She says
“its hard to get back on track”
She says
“There are some things
that you can’t take back”
And I know

It sucks
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie
I’m out of luck
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie

I’ve watched too many scenes
Where sex is instantly great
They hit the spots right away
No impotent mistakes
But sex she ain’t like that
She says
“first could you rub my back”
she says
“oh, it don’t work like that
but you’re on the right track"

It sucks
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie
I’m out of luck
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie

I’ve met love and I’ve met sex
I want them both with no regrets
No empty beds or dear dave texts
Yet every time I board a plane
My head is filled with thoughts insane
Of seeing you run through departures
Flanked either side by cupids archers
You movie makers aren’t my friends
Cos the truth I’ve found is that love, she ain't my friend.

It sucks
We’re not in a movie, we’re not in a movie
I’m out of luck
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie
It sucks
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie
I’m out of luck
We’re not in the movies, we’re not in a movie
