Hollywood happy end

Just one day after publishing my lyrics collection I've put together yet another song text, it's called "Hollywood happy end". I had kept that particular title in mind since quite some time. Originally, I intended to write a cynical anti war song. The first verse and the chorus came out much as I had envisioned them. But when it came to writing the bridge - the anti-war part - I somehow wrote a rather harmless everyday wisdom verse instead (content-wise it could have made a bridge), and a kind of persiflage of the chorus:

VERSE
a pool of blood, scattered body parts
brain matter at the wall
intestines exposed, a car explodes
a victor standing tall

CHORUS
he's just rescued a beautiful girl
he was lucky he wasn't too late
he got the mess tackled in a whirl
yet again he had mastered fate

he's the hero who comes to grips
where others would simply give up
his reward is a kiss from her lips
he always is coming out top

now they both smile happily,
turn, and wander off merrily
in their Hollywood happy end

VERSE
the wedding party has gone to ruin
it's been a big pratfall
the bride has fled, guests shake their head
the victor's standing tall

CHORUS

VERSE
life isn't a movie, life is for real
no saviour on call
what you'll have instead is a blow to the head
no victor standing tall

CHORUS
just try to rescue a beautiful girl
you'll wish you had come too late
you'll get yourself in a mess in a whirl
when you are meeting your fate

when will you ever come to grips
when will you learn to give up
couldn't you tell from her scornful lips
you'll never be coming out top

now you are grinning sheepishly,
turn, and wander off awkwardly
in your real world disaster end
