[00:01.127] NORMA:
[00:01.625] No more wars to fight
[00:06.152] White flags fly tonight
[00:11.423] You are out of danger now
[00:18.923] Battlefield is still
[00:23.544] Wild poppies on the hill
[00:27.270] Peace can only come when you surrender
[00:37.405] Here the tracers fly
[00:41.108] Lighting up the sky
[00:45.148] But I'll fight on to the end
[00:53.369] Let them send their armies
[00:58.500] I will never bend
[01:02.041] I won't see you now 'til I surrender
[01:12.767] I'll see you again when I surrender
[01:26.759] Now don't you give me a fancy price just because I'm rich.
[01:31.380] JOE:
[01:31.578] Look, lady, you've got the wrong man.
[01:33.238] I had some trouble with my car, I just pulled into your driveway.
[01:35.596] NORMA:
[01:36.095] Get out.
[01:36.895] JOE:
[01:37.475] O.K. And I'm sorry you lost your friend.
[01:40.273] NORMA:
[01:40.437] Get out of here.
[01:41.480] JOE:
[01:42.491] Haven't I seen you somewhere before?
[01:44.151] NORMA:
[01:44.313] Or shall I call my servant?
[01:45.915] JOE:
[01:46.090] Aren't you Norma Desmond? You used to be in pictures.
[01:51.360] You used to be big.
[01:53.218] NORMA:
[01:53.392] I am big. It's the pictures that got small.
[01:59.289] Once upon a time
[02:00.694] Not long ago
[02:01.356] The head of any studio
[02:02.772] Knew how and when to play his aces
[02:05.396] Now they put some
[02:07.835] Talentless unknown
[02:08.717] Beneath their sacred microphone
[02:10.376] We didn't need words
[02:11.897] We had faces
[02:13.569] Yes, they took all the idols and smashed them
[02:17.516] The Fairbanks, the Gilberts, the Valentinos
[02:21.718] They trampled on what was divine
[02:26.374] They threw away the gold of silence
[02:32.876] When all they needed was this face of mine
[02:41.595] JOE:
[02:42.372] Hey! Don't blame me, I'm just a writer.
