Movie Star Songtext
von Herbert

Boy
Keep pulling the blinds down
Turn up the surround sound
Lay back in the low chair
Transported to nowhere

Oh what is it you′ll have me do?
What is it i'll have to do?

Boy
Talk through the silence
And humour the violence
Consider this frame now
Make me the same now

Oh what is it you want me to?
What is it i′ll have to do?

Show me where the mark is
Show me where the mic goes
Show me where my room is
Show me where the food goes


Tell me how to kiss you
Tell me where my hand goes
Tell me when it's over
Tell me if my tit shows

Show me how to cry now
Show me how to kneel down
Show me how to be hit
Show me how to fall down

Tell me how to learn lines
Tell me how to fake it
Tell me how to read signs
Tell me how to make it

It's just like a movie
Direct me in it
It′s just like a movie
Dress me up in it
It′s just like a movie
Cut the bits you don't like out
It′s really like a movie
Make me up in it

I wanna be that equal
Don't think about the sequel

Or a hotdog with it


Boy
I′m feeling like a movie star
Direct you in it
I'm feeling like i could go far
Make you up in it
I′m feeling like a movie star
Cut the bits i won't like out
I'm really feeling like i could go far
Direct you in it

And a hotdog with it

Boy
I′m up for the lead role
I′m up for a lost soul
Consider the bad guys
Remember their dark eyes

Oh what is it you'll have me do?
What is it i′ll have to do?

Boy
I'll be there at the crime scene
A trick for halloween
I′m happy to bare all
I'm happy to play cruel

Oh what is it you′ll have me do?
What is it i'll have to do?

Take me to your agent
Take me to the back door
Take me to the party
Take me to the hardcore

Keep me from the public
Keep me in the limelight
Keep me from the failure
Keep me from the hindsight

Take me to the big time
Take me to the a list
Take me from noone
Take me to the guest list

Keep me in the future
Keep me in the hotel
Keep from the wait staff
Keep me from the farewell

It's just like a movie
Direct me in it
It′s just like a movie
Dress me up in it
It′s just like a movie
Cut the bits you don't like out
It′s really like a movie
Make me up in it

I'm ready for this moment
This moment keeps me steady

And the popcorn with it

I′m feeling like a movie star
Direct me in it
I'm feeling like i could go far
Dress me up in it
I′m feeling like a movie star
Direct me in it
I'm really feeling like i could go far
Direct me in it

And a hotdog with it
