| You’ve gotta play the scene up on the silver screen
|
| You gotta live the dream; |
| the «lights, camera, action» thing
|
| The water’s technicolor blue and the waves don’t miss a cue
|
| Not a hair is out of place; |
| every line’s a perfect take
|
| You’ve gotta play the scene up on the silver screen
|
| Whoa, it’s better in the story
|
| Always clever, never wordy; |
| you got the part
|
| Whoa, it’s better when you wake up
|
| Minty breath and perfect makeup; |
| you’re a work of art
|
| And no one ever breaks your heart
|
| You’ve gotta play the scene up on the silver screen
|
| No matter where you’ve been, good times are zooming in
|
| You can dream and no one sleeps; |
| say a bad word and it bleeps
|
| You can have and eat your cake; |
| never need a bathroom break
|
| You’ve gotta play the scene up on the silver screen
|
| Whoa, it’s better on location
|
| Cause it feels like a vacation, super fun
|
| Whoa, bring the feature to the people
|
| If it’s good, they’ll make a sequel when we’re done
|
| The surf is up under the sun
|
| Hey!
|
| The good guy saves the day; |
| the bad guys run away
|
| Everybody dances when the music starts to play
|
| The cats are always cool; |
| never have to go to school
|
| Get ready for your closeup; |
| it’s the happy-ending rule
|
| You gotta play the scene
|
| You’ve gotta play the scene up on the silver screen
|
| You gotta live the dream; |
| the «lights, camera, action» thing
|
| Cause it’s better in a movie; |
| when you’re mad or if it’s groovy
|
| Where true love is always true; |
| when you met him, then you knew
|
| You’ve gotta play the scene
|
| Up on the silver screen |
