Lyrics The Magnetic Fields

The Magnetic Fields

Josephine

If I were Napoleon, you could be my Josephine

We could go to drive-in films in my red convertible

If I were Napoleon, I might be in magazines

I'd write some science fiction - science fiction about you

You could be my Josephine: just you and your chaperone

Let you be my Josephine, Josephine

If I were Napoleon, you could be my lady love

Look into my soft blue eyes

Run your fingers through my hair

If I were Napoleon, you could be my turtle-dove

Living out in Corsica in our summer cottages

And you could be my Josephine and we could be Siamese twins

Let you be my Josephine, Josephine
