i wanna be your marilyn monroe

i wanna be your marilyn monroe
& you can be my romeo
we'll romance & o v e r d o s e
on barbituates & love
we'll be our own poison
& when we're ghosts
we'll hold hands & sing
lalalalalala

i wanna be your marilyn monroe
& you can be my joe dimaggio
we'll be american icons
living in furs, penthouses & s i n
you'll defend my nude scenes
when i defend your anger management
with bruises on my wrists & blood on our lips
we'll be our sweetest downfall
when we hold hands & sing
lalalalalalala

i wanna be your marilyn monroe
& you can be my arthur miller
my soft-hearted believer
stringing pretty poems around my neck
like diamonds
(for forever)
i'll be your goddess, i'll be your muse
you can be my eros (my jack daniels too)
we'll be broken hearted peacemakers
& we'll hold hands & sing
lalalalalala

i wanna be your miss golden dreams
& you can be my benzodiazepine
i'll be your celluloid reality
your fantasies
what you want & what you need
i'll keep your secrets within
my heart
next to me
& when we hold hands
we'll sing
lalalalalala

i wanna be your marilyn monroe
& you can be my romeo
we'll romance & o v e r d o s e
we'll be our own poison
& when we're ghosts
we'll hold hands & sing
lalalalalala

we'll hold hands & sing
lalalalalala
