Suzanne Vega - (If You Were ) In My Movie lyrics

I'd have you as the doctor

Small black bag

And a big black coat

I'd have you make a house call

To the woman

You could lay your

Diagnostic hand

Upon her belly and her throat

If you were in my movie

You could be the detective

You could sit behind the desk

With a question on your lip

Examine her for motive

Investigate the scene

In the ever present danger

Keep the holster at your hip

If you were in my movie

If you were in my movie

If you were in my movie

If you were in my movie

You could be the priest

Long black frock

White collar at the neck

You could come to the confession

You could give a girl a thrill

You could save her from her passion

Keep her body in check

If you were in my movie

If you were in my movie

If you were in my movie

If you were in my movie

You could be the gangster

Double-breasted pinstriped

Man with the cigarette

Go running down the alley

With a double-crossing blond

Explaining to the jury

That you hadn't done anything yet

If you were in my movie
