High as the money would take me
Movie Girl says, “Get your shoes.”
I know I should’ve known better
But that Movie Girl is hard to refuse
When she’s smilin’
            (the world gets easy to take…harder to hate)
When she’s smilin’
Sometimes love can almost save me
            (but it’s a little too late)
When she’s smilin’
            (We all wish we could be Movie Girl
            We all wish it was a movie world)

Drive to the home of the taco
Movie Girl can pay for gas
Wave to the man at the border
Ain’t no wall they built she can’t get past

When she’s smilin’
            (the good life’s easy to fake…it’s harder to wait)
When she’s smilin’
Sometimes love can almost save me
            (but it’s a little too late)
When she’s smilin’
            (We all wish we could be Movie Girl
            We all wish it was a movie world)

I got a house in Qaxaca
Movie Girl’s on my T.V.
She’s got a way with the camera
Now and then I know she thinks of me

When she’s smilin’
            (the world gets easy to take…harder to hate)
When she’s smilin’
Sometimes love can almost save me
            (but it’s a little too late)

When she’s smilin’
