Rita Hayworth lyrics

We’re all actors

I play you, you play me

In this scene of wannabes and abusers

‘Cause when the black hits

There’s no available light left

You can’t offset the dark with illusions

You do rails of blow at the House Soho

And say "Man, this place is so full of losers"

And when you wait at the valet and try to escape

You get a "Come on" from some nothin’ producer

And he says

And he says

And he says

You look like Rita Hayworth

From the pinup in a magazine

I said, you look like Rita Hayworth

I know you know what he means

You’re swimmin’ with Jaws

And this dream town will swallow you whole

You’re gonna need a biggеr boat

You’re swimmin’ with Jaws

And this dream town will swallow you whole

You’rе gonna need a bigger boat

You found a star map

Lyin’ dead in the street

You tried to glue it but the holes were colossal

It’s all a rat trap

Full of beautiful thieves

Selling infamy with evil apostles

You know it’s time to leave this place

Sugar, this ain’t Oscar bait

You look like Rita Hayworth

From the pinup in a magazine

I said, you look like Rita Hayworth

I know you know what he means

You’re swimmin’ with Jaws

And this dream town will swallow you whole

You’re gonna need a bigger boat

You’re swimmin’ with Jaws

And this dream town will swallow you whole

You’re gonna need a bigger boat

You look like Rita Hayworth

From the pinup in a magazine

I said, you look like Rita Hayworth

I know you know what he means

You’re swimmin’ with Jaws

And this dream town will swallow you whole

You’re gonna need a bigger boat

You’re swimmin’ with Jaws

And this dream town will swallow you whole

You’re gonna need a bigger boat

You’re gonna need a bigger boat

You’re gonna need a bigger boat
