Say your lines, show your face
Act like it's for real
Be polite, show some grace
When they tell you how they feel
So you wanna be a Movie Star
But you can't remember who you are
Maybe then they'll think you're someone special
Because you just don't think you are
When the lights touch your face
You'll feel the whole world's embrace
Maybe then you'll smile, but that won't be for a while
Change your look, sculpt your shape
Lie about your age
Live the dream, play the part
Maybe then they'll know your name
So you wanna be a Movie Star
But you can't remember who you are
Maybe then they'll think you're someone special
Because you just don't think you are
When the lights touch your face
You'll feel the whole world's embrace
Maybe then you'll smile, but that won't be for a while
Why don't you try to live in your own skin
It might be the best role that you're ever in
Maybe then you'll think you're someone special
Because you just don't think you are
When the lights touch your face
You'll feel the whole world's embrace
Maybe then you'll smile, but that won't be for a while
