BLOOD BROTHERS SOUNDTRACK LYRICS
Marilyn Monroe (2)
[MRS. JOHNSTONE]
The house we got was lovely,
The neighbours are a treat,
They sometimes fight on a Saturday night,
But never in the week.
[NEIGHBOURS]
What time do you call this, then?
Time I got shot of you, rat bag! "Ow!"
[MRS. JOHNSTONE]
Since I pay me bills on time,
The milkman insists I call him Joe.
[MILKMAN]
Call me Joe.
[MRS. JOHNSTONE]
He brings me bread and eggs,
Says I've got legs
Like Marilyn Monroe.
Sometimes he takes me dancing
Even takes me dancing
I know our Sammy burnt the school down.
But it's very easily done.
If the teacher lets the silly gets
Play with magnesium.
Thank God he only got probation.
The judge was old and slow
Thought it was kind of him,
Said I reminded him of Marilyn Monroe.
[JUDGE]
And could I take you dancing?
I'd love to take you dancing young lady.
[MRS. JOHNSTONE]
Our Mickey's just turned fourteen.
Y' know he's at that age
When you mention girls, or courting,
He flies into a rage.
[MICKEY]
Shut up talking about me, Mother.
[MRS. JOHNSTONE]
He's got a thing for taking blackheads out,
And he think I don't know,
That he dreams all night of girls
who look like Marilyn Monroe.
He's even started dancing, secret dancing
And as for the rest, they've flown the nest
Got married or moved away
Our Donna Marie's already got three.
[DONNA MARIE]
Hello, ma'am.
[MRS. JOHNSTONE]
She's a bit like me.
And that other child of mine,
I haven't seen for years, although
Each day I pray he'll be okay,
Unlike poor Marilyn Monroe.
