That’s Why God Made the Movies

When I was born, my mother died
She said bye-bye baby, bye-bye
I said "Where you going?, I'm just born"
She said I'll only be gone for a while
My mother loved to leave in style

That's why God made the movies

Well I laid around in my swaddling clothes
Until the doctor came and turned out the lights
Then I packed my bag and my nametag
And stole away into the night
Hoping things would work out right

That's why God made the movies

Say you will, say you will
Say you'll take me to your loving breast
Say you'll nourish me with your tenderness
The way that ladies sometimes do

Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't leave me for no other man
Say you'll love me just the way I am
Say you will, say you will

When I was born my mother died
She said bye-bye baby, bye-bye
And since that day I've paid my way
The notorious boy of the wild
Adopted by wolves when he was a child

That's why God, that's why God
That's why God made the movies
