Lyrics
Edit
Marilyn:
(spoken) Just thought a little company would be nice. We don't have to do anything, just ... just talk. I like to talk. You know, people don't talk enough, or they talk too much and they just ... they don't listen. I'm lying here naked, waiting for you. Come over. Come on, I'm more beautiful than ever. Sure ... I understand ... Just remember you're a great guy.
Marilyn:
Oh, the words can stay unspoken
'Til everyone has found
That second hand white baby grand
Still had something beautiful to give
Still had something beautiful
To give
Later ReprisalsEdit
- Karen Cartwright as Marilyn Monroe (Bombshell)
