Veronica Lake

Sparks * Track #2 On The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte

Veronica Lake Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a war going on, can't make a mistake
All the girls are on the line, they must stay awake
Every B-29, so much at stake
But they're working on the line, till they all will ache

[Verse 2]
And they all do want to be Veronica Lake
But that peek-a-boo-y hair, it's a big mistake
As the foreman has to yell, "put on the brake"
Yet another girl caught, Veronica Lake

[Verse 3]
And their loverboys are gone, so much at stake
As they rivet and drill, then they take a brеak
Reading movie star mags, they will imitatе
Yes, the one they all adore, Veronica Lake

[Verse 4]
And that peek-a-boo-y hair, it's a big mistake
One again foreman yells "put on the brake"
As the blond wavy hair, millions partake
And they fancy themselves Veronica Lake

[Verse 5]
In the midst of a war, we all must partake
Of our fantasy world, give us all a break
And their fantasy girl, who they imitate
Is their number one choice, Veronica Lake
Veronica Lake
Veronica Lake

[Verse 6]
As the leaders convene, so much is at stake
The assembly has slowed, this we cannot take
There's a problem with their hair, each day we brake
'Cause they all want to be Veronica Lake

[Verse 7]
Now the government says, for goodness sake
Get a hold of this girl, Veronica Lake
And they beg her and plead, can you please make
Your hair slightly less like Veronica Lake?

[Verse 8]
And you'll still get to be Veronica Lake
Just a little toned down for the Allies' sake
All the girls look to you for the path to take
But that peek-a-boo-y hair, way too many breaks

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 9]
She accepts their advice, hair now put in place
Not all swerving on down on her pretty face
She will kill her career all for the sake
Of our winning the war, Veronica Lake

[Verse 10]
Yes she killed her career, so much at stake
But we're winning the war, now we've caught a break
Still a casualty of war, Veronica Lake
As Veronica Lake's not Veronica Lake

[Verse 11]
She is a still a pretty girl, make no mistake
But she isn't like before, how my heart aches
Back then no one would mistake Veronica Lake
For any other girl, Veronica Lake
