Текст песни: Marlene + перевод

in the city of the angels

where nobody gets blue

we have a vague recollection

of someone like you

but we couldn’t make the funeral

we had so much to do

marlene…

i think that was your name

yes, our stars are best at shining

with their backs against the wall

and we sometimes see them broken

and sometimes see them crawl

but we’re certain to forget them

if we don’t see them at all

marlene…

i think that was your name

we have our garbo

coat and scarf and shades

and norma jean

her mystery never fades

we have princess grace

with her perfect face

why do we need you?

you broke the rules…

in your custom-made tuxedo

you were hot from head to toe

they say you walked away from hitler

and toured with g.i. joe

but politics are boring

it was so long ago

marlene…

i think that was your name

we have our garbo

coat and scarf and shades

and norma jean

her mystery never fades

we have princess grace

her supermarket face

why do we need you?

you broke the rules…

the procession was in paris

and another in berlin

there were diplomats from places

that you had never been

but there was no one from the movies

i guess you weren’t a friend

marlene…

i think that was your name
