Groovy Movies

Ray Davies, released on The Great Lost Kinks Album, © unknown 1973

.

Sometimes I think I'm gonna better myself,

Searching for acceptance in this big, wide world.

Sometimes I think I won't make it,

Playing in a rock 'n' roll band.

Sometimes I wanna be a picture director,

And try to make the world understand.

.

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies.

.

All the movie makers of the world would be,

Falling over backwards to have dinner with me.

I'll go down to [?]

Anytime I feel like a game[?].

Or take a long vacation to San Tropez,

And think of all the money I made.

.

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies.

.

I don't want to be a producer,

I don't want to be a big star.

I just want to be a picture director,

And smoke a big Havana cigar.

.

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies,

By making groovy movies.

.
