“Mary Pickford” is a song written and produced for Katie Melua by Mike Batt. It is Melua’s tenth single and the second from her third album “Pictures.”
“Mary Pickford” was originally inspired by a daily facts calendar owned by Batt that one day featured the fact that Mary Pickford used to eat roses...
Mary Pickford used to eat roses
Thought that they'd make her beautiful and they did
One supposes
Douglas Fairbanks, he was so handsome
He wore a moustache
Must-a had much cash, too
Worth a king's ransom
Charlie Chaplin, he was invited
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
David Griffith worked as an extra
Then as a stagehand
Until they let him be
A director
Dave was brave, a mover and shaker
A true pioneer
He seemed to show no fear
A real film maker
Just like Chaplin, he was invited
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
They tied the knot together
Groom and bride couldn't hide their pleasure
They tried to pick fair weather
But love died, didn't last forever
Mary Pickford used to eat roses
Thought that they'd make her beautiful and they did
One supposes
Douglas Fairbanks, he was so handsome
He wore a moustache
Must-a had much cash too
Worth a king's ransom
Charlie Chaplin, he was invited
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
