Lyrics

Daytime Drama (Demo)

[Verse 1]

Beautiful star

Daytime drama

Body's a playground

Of desire

Swear some lipstick

And smack my chin

[Verse 2]

Beautiful star

Beautiful star

Daytime drama

How they love you

On my quasar

Over blue light

Sends me in the afternoon light

Beautiful star

[Chorus]

You want it over and over again

You want it over and over again

[Bridge]

Da-na-na

Doo-doo-doo-doo

Hey

[Verse 3]

Beautiful star

Daytime drama

Of heaven you stuck

Every cosmetic

To your nail

They love to advertise

Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Chorus]

You want it over and over again

You want it over and over again

[Verse 4]

Beautiful star

Daytime drama

Jobless millions

Your hope for the futurе

Beautiful star

A daytime drama

Every stеp you take is a

Wonder from

Beautiful star

[Bridge]

Blue light says the tape is frayed

Time for love, my beautiful star

Daytime drama

It's not hard kind

It's the wonder of

[Verse 5]

Beautiful star

Daytime drama

Oh, you're the future

Fu-oo-oo-ture

Beautiful star

Beautiful, beautiful star

Daytime drama
