Look, I'm a Famous Actor

Write it on a page
Write it out again
At least until I get it
Now do you understand
Come along with me
There's a couple things I think I want to show you
I think I want to show you

Oh, I could try to play pretend
I could get dressed up and look real fine tonight
Could do something new with my hair
Look, I'm a famous actor
I want to do everything
But I never end up doing a thing
I'll write a record in my bed
Show you that I'm important

Light up the stage
Oh, baby, I can make it living in my ways
Doing my own thing
It won't mean much to me ordering in again
Just like we did yesterday
Like we do every day

But maybe we'll go out and we'll dance
I could cut up a big, big rug tonight
And then you would turn to your friends
And you would say "he's all mine"
Then we could drive out to the lake
We could do something they write books about
Throw rocks out into the water
Hey look, we're interesting

Write it on a page
Get it from your mind, from your heart, from your heart
Time eats away
Makes you a little softer, a little quieter and a little more tired

I'm like the engine of a jet plane
I'm like a bullet in the chamber tonight
I went and bought a brand new hat
Learned seven different languages
I want to have a new habit
I want to do something I know is bad
Everyone will know who I am
Look, I'm a famous actor
