[00:16.09]I told you before that this is the end
[00:19.43]You'll never work in this town again
[00:23.15]Jamais
[00:24.52]
[00:30.59]You think you know me  that's your trouble
[00:34.71]Never fall in love with a body double
[00:38.58]Jamais
[00:39.46]
[00:46.34]I stick to the script and I go with the plan
[00:50.09]And frankly my dear I never gave a damn
[00:53.65]Jamais
[00:54.58]
[01:01.27]Never even scratched the surface
[01:04.46]Though you're picking through my bones
[01:08.52]It's the performance of a lifetime
[01:12.46]It's my only starring role
[01:16.21]Your leading lady needs direction
[01:20.27]Your leading lady sleeps alone
[01:25.65]
[01:39.89]You got the surface and substance confused
[01:43.63]Don't believe what you read in those interviews
[01:47.63]Jamais
[01:48.88]
[01:54.82]I can act like I'm dumb  I can act like I'm clever
[01:59.51]You thought that was me   oh well  I never
[02:03.20]Jamais
[02:03.57]
[02:10.13]So just what is real and just what is fake
[02:14.01]Well in life you never get to do a second take
[02:19.07]Jamais
[02:25.20]Never even scratched the surface
[02:28.57]Though you're picking through my bones
[02:32.89]Though the names and dates are altered
[02:36.39]The story's still my own
[02:40.95]The performance of a lifetime
[02:44.13]My only starring role
[02:54.02]
[03:35.47]In a cast of many thousands
[03:36.72]No one's essential to the plot
[03:40.25]Every extra  every superstar
[03:44.18]Must now vacate the lot
[03:47.75]In the performance of a lifetime
[03:52.31]I make the final cut
