Tell me it's not true
Say it's just a story
Something on the news
Tell me it's not true
Though it's here
before me
Say it's just a dream
Say it's just a scene
From an old movie
of years ago
From an old movie
of Marilyn Monroe
Say it's just
some clowns
Two players in
the limelight
And bring the
curtain down
Say it's just
two clowns
Who couldn't get
their lines right
Say it's just a show
on the radio
That we can turn
over and start again
That we can turn over
it's just a game
Tell me it's not true
Say I only dreamed it
And morning will
come soon
Tell me it's not true
Say you didn't mean it
Say it's just pretend
Say it's just the end
Of an old movie
from years ago
From an old movie
of Marilyn Monroe
Tell me it's not true
Say you didn't mean it
Say it's just pretend
Say it's just the end
Of an old movie
from years ago
From an old movie
with Marilyn Monroe
Oh oh oh
