Movie Star

You think privacy is overrated

Your dreams are way more important

You love to prove your magic touch

And that's why you talk way too much

You didn't have breakfast this morning

You want to be perfect when you go out and face the world

But I blame your ego and all of these people

I'm always cautious and they want the sequel

But I haven't written the first one

I put my pennies on the table as I shoot at the cashier

That's the movie of the year

You want to get a brand new face to go with your evening suit

You want to be a movie star, do it for the ego boost

And we can self-medicate, and tell ourselves we ain't fools

We all want to be movie stars but none of us have a clue

Your face caked up just like Andy Kauffman

Goin' out with a nosebleed, coughing

You say I don't do it too much

But your life is a naked lunch

Smoke it all to the roach while the parents are close

'Cause if they don't ask no questions they are fun

You want to get a brand new face to go with your evening suit

You want to be a movie star, do it for the ego boost

And we can self-medicate, and tell ourselves we ain't fools

We all want to be movie stars but none of us have a clue

Now wonder what's coming next

Maybe tattoos on my face when I have no room on my chest

Dime bags and pearl in the hills, driving up here was a quest

'Cause every time she took a right she should have taken a left

She said "you don't got a fast car, why I gotta show respect?"

*****, I must've not heard you correct

You can leave 'cause in my head I think you've already left

I must be two minutes ahead like Nicky Cage was in Next

You want to get a brand new face to go with your evening suit

You want to be a movie star, do it for the ego boost

And we can self-medicate, and tell ourselves we ain't fools

We all want to be movie stars but none of us have a clue
