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
