The Night I Saved Peter Ustinov Lyrics - Singles - Christy Lauren

I was walking barefoot on St. Paul's bridge 

When I saw a man talking to God 

He was round and handsome 

Anachronistically 

A little odd 

I overheard his conversation 

He said, "I can't live in a world devoid of love." 

And the voice, the voice was so familiar 

It was the voice of Peter Ustinov 

"Peter," I whispered from the shadows 

"We've all been damaged by the 20th century 

A man like you can talk to God 

But can you spare a word for me? 

For I have loved you since the time 

I saw you in 'The Mouse that Roared'." 

"That was Peter Sellers, my dear. 

Go away," he implored 

Chorus: 

"See, I used to be Ustinov 

But used to's no good enough for me 

See, I used to be Ustinov 

But used to's not good enough for me." 

The I blurted out "Quo Vadis" 

"Topkapi," ooh yeah "Evil Under The Sun." 

He waved his hand, "It's too late for that. 

As you said, the damage has been done." 

Then he lifted his body up 

To throw himself to a watery grave 

"Peter," I yelled 

"What about 'Billy Budd' 

The innocent no one could save?" 

(Repeat chorus) 

"So tell me what you're dying for 

Have you been so disrespected?" 

He winked at me and said, "'Billy Budd.' 

I wrote, starred, and directed." 

Then he bowed and kissed my hand 

And said, "What was I thinking of?" 

And walked away into the night 

The night I saved Peter Ustinov 

"You used to be Ustinov 

But used to's still good enough for me 

You used to be Ustinov 

But used to's still good enough for me."
