Description
This song is about a terrible date I had. It's about feeling victimy and over reacting. Ealing is where I grew up in London where lots of black and white comedies and Charlie Chaplin films were made.
Lyrics
EALING COMEDY Please make a chick flick tonight, No more horror movies Give me a happy ending, I want Hollywood I’m so excited I’m going out tonight I’ve stuffed my face and my jeans are a little bit tight. I have a cold and my nose is red and sore But I won’t care when I go knocking on heavens door This one is different, he’s spiritual and pure And he’s a singer, I can see us together on tour They say he’s special and caring and wise It’s so long since I’ve met someone who’s actually nice They say he’s nice, oh no Oh no, oh no it’s raining it’s raining and I’m here, here on my own again my own again I’m here, over reacting, reacting It feels like an Ealing Comedy it’s a comedy I’m on his doorstep and there’s no reply My heart is pounding, I don’t understand how and why And so I check, it’s the wrong number bell I ring the right one, no answer again, I’m in hell This feels like hell, oh no Oh no, oh no it’s raining it’s raining I’m here, here on my own again my own again I’m watching myself in a film, it’s not Hollywood It’s more like an Ealing Comedy, it’s a comedy And when he calls to explain, I behave like a victim His excuses are real but I’m horrible, oh no no no Oh no, oh no it’s raining it’s raining and I’m here, here on my own again my own again I’m watching myself in a film, it’s not Hollywood It’s more like an Ealing comedy, it’s a comedy It’s more like an Ealing comedy, it’s a comedy Please make a chick flick tonight, No more horror movies Give me a happy Ending, I want Hollywood
