Jamais |
I told you before that this is the end |
You’ll never work in this town again |
Jamais |
You think you know me, that’s your trouble |
Never fall in love with a body double |
Jamais |
I stick to the script and i go with the plan |
And frankly my dear i never gave a damn |
Jamais |
Never even scratched the surface |
Though you’re picking through my bones |
It’s the performance of a lifetime |
It’s my only starring role |
Your leading lady needs direction |
Your leading lady sleeps alone |
You got the surface and substance confused |
Don’t believe what you read in those interviews |
Jamais |
I can act like i’m dumb, i can act like i’m clever |
You thought that was me? |
oh well, i never |
Jamais |
So just what is real and just what is fake? |
Well in life you never get to do a second take |
Jamais |
Never even scratched the surface |
Though you’re picking through my bones |
Though the names and dates are altered |
The story’s still my own |
The performance of a lifetime |
My only starring role |
In a cast of many thousands |
No one’s essential to the plot |
Every extra, every superstar |
Must now vacate the lot |
In the performance of a lifetime |
I make the final cut |
