Rita

Pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-pa-pa-pa

It was a maritime morning, I had four missed calls
so I ran to her window and broke her fall
She said, "I'm sorry for trying a couple dozen of times
but I did it for the story - you know an actress never dies"

Standing next to Rita wearing nothing but a beater
and my arms are full of daffodils - I'm going for the kill
I said "you know I'm not a player, I can hardly play guitar
but all the other girls were stand-ins, and babe, you got the part"

She said her character's British as she was making a pie
Then she took off her leggings and showed me the lines (woo!)

Standing next to Rita wearing nothing but a beater
and my teeth are full of roses - I'm going for the kill
I said "you know I'm not a player, I can hardly play guitar
but all the other girls were stand-ins, and babe, you got the part"

I haven't spoken to Rita ever since that night
but if you see her on TV, tell her she did alright
cause I know that she means it, every last of her lines
Just like falling out a window, you know an actress never lies

Standing next to Rita wearing nothing but a beater
and my bags are full of groceries - I'm going for the kill
I said "you know I'm not a player, I can hardly play guitar
but all the other girls were stand-ins, and babe, you got the part"

You got the pa-pa-pa-pa
You got the pa-pa-pa-pa
