Lyrics
[Verse 1] Lana Turner, Lana Turner Like a mother to the nation, it's a life of obligation Lana Turner, Lana Turner If she did, she wouldn't show it And she never even know it [Verse 2] Lana Turner, Lana Turner Her heart beats slow like a beat of a drum Like she's seven feet tall and she's still number one And her hair is so blonde and her skin as a flame And her looks could kill you, would not be the same? But I wouldn't dare dream of anyone else It's a fatе for millions, here on a shelf [Verse 3] Lana Turnеr, Lana Turner Like a mother to the nation, it's a life of obligation Lana Turner, Lana Turner If she did, she wouldn't show it And she never even know it [Verse 4] Lana Turner, Lana Turner Well, Lana Turner says, "It's the gospel of truth" And she makes TV like the bottle of youth Well, Lana Turner says, "It's changed her life" Like a mouth's too big that would suit your wife Well, Lana Turner says, "It's a dream come true" And she's just wished to come home with you [Interlude] Lana Turner, Lana Turner Like a mother to the nation, it's a life of obligation Lana Turner, Lana Turner [Verse 5] Well, Lana Turner, Lana Turner Like a mother to the nation, it's a life of obligation Lana Turner, Lana Turner If she did, she wouldn't show it And she never even know it [Verse 6] If the sky should fall, then a hole in your head And the day is so bad that she stayed in bed When the floor caves in, like it knows that it must When there's no one left, that's what you've trusted There's always someone who will call your name Like a vision in the movies, stays the same [Outro] Lana Turner, Lana Turner Like a mother to the nation, it's a life of obligation Lana Turner, Lana Turner If she did, she wouldn't show it And she never even know it
