Van Dyke Parks
Run the Credits
[Verse 1]
If every story is told in three parts
I know the middle and I can remember the start
I'm not scared by the man holding the knife
But nothing's more terrifying than that look in your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Psycho killer in a romantic comedy
Closing scenes of a decade long trilogy
[Chorus]
Run the credits, let them rain on me
Even Romeo dies in the final scene
Romeo dies, dies, he dies in the final scene
Romeo dies, dies, he dies in the final scene
[Verse 2]
Staring up at the silver screen
Sold me the lie of the teenage dream
Disney princes, my God I hate them
I'm Buffalo Bill, I'm Patrick Bateman
[Bridge]
What's a flower, if not a sinister motive?
If that's what you wanted, I've got dozens of roses (Dozens of roses)
[Pre-Chorus]
Psycho killer in a romantic comedy
Closing scenes of a decade long trilogy
[Chorus]
Run the credits, let them rain on me
Even Romeo dies in the final scene
Romeo dies, dies, he dies in the final scene
Romeo dies, dies, he dies in the final scene
Romeo dies, dies, he dies in the final scene
Romeo dies, dies, he dies in the final scene
[Outro]
Run the credits, let them rain on me
Even Romeo dies in the final scene
Run the credits, let them rain on me
Even Romeo
