[00:04.68] Principal actors to the stage please'
[00:08.50] Act One is about to begin in 8 seconds.
[00:13.15]
[00:18.14] First you can't act' now you can't stop'
[00:20.95] （What's my motivation?）
[00:22.33] I used to like you... a lot'
[00:24.71] （I was the class nerd）
[00:26.58] Exactly who I'm s'posed to be'
[00:29.14] （I'm totally Strasberg）
[00:30.77] You play a doctor on TV'
[00:33.02] （What you're doing is SO brave）
[00:35.08] Deep down you're dirty but you try'
[00:37.96] （I'm a good person）
[00:40.94] The truth would break you so you lie'
[00:42.37] （I want my work to matter）
[00:43.68] It's in the choices that you make'
[00:46.56] （I want to inspire）
[00:47.37]
[00:48.58] No talent' just fate.

[01:31.05] You love to act' I wish you would'
[01:33.36] （It's not acting' it's re-acting）
[01:35.11] Act like you're not from out of space'
[01:37.68] （When I'm on stage I feel alive）
[01:39.55] You know ambition isn't grace'
[01:42.06] （For me it's the craft）
[01:43.93] Made of Sex' Maida Vale'
[01:46.24] （Would I do better in New York）
[01:48.56] You are the Alpha Male'
[01:50.61] （I'm just too pretty for that role）
[01:52.30] You are the good' you are the great'
[01:54.93] （The words have power）
