Three Picture Deal - Walter Becker

Here she stands in the doorway

Her face is framed in golden light

With creamy thighs and bedroom eyes

Call it, ‽Urchin with an appetiteâ€

My favorite shirt, my terry towel

A bowl of cherries in her hand

It’s breakfast and some head shots

That she’s bringing for her brand new man

It’s a one, it’s a two, it’s a three

It’s a three picture deal

I said a one, it’s a two, it’s a three

It’s a three picture deal

Her new house on the hillside

Some blocks above the Sunset Strip

The yoga den is megazen

The vibey lighting ultra hip

She’s gushing on her cellphone

The trainer’s on eternal hold

Producer X is talking film

But the bottom line is solid gold

With a one, maybe two, even three

Yes, a three picture deal

Yes, it’s a one, even two or a three

Yes, a three picture deal

Well, she’s leaving in the Limo

She’s sorry but they’re running late

The night is here, the big premiere

It’s ‽The lady and the reprobateâ€

Now a man like me should never be

Where a man like me does not belong

But I know they’re gonna need a soundtrack

I know they’re gonna need a song

For the one

(One, two, three, yeah)

Three picture deal

I said the one

(One, two, three, yeah)

Three picture deal

I said the one

(One, two, three, yeah)

Three picture deal

I said the one

(One)

Two

(Two)

Three

(Three)

Three picture deal

I said a

(One, two, three)

Three picture deal

(One, two, three)

It’s a three picture deal

I said a one

Oh, two

May be three

Well, a three picture deal

I said a one

May be two

Even three

Yes, a three picture deal

I said a one

Or two

Yes, three

Well, a three picture deal

Yes, a one

And two

And three

Three picture deal
