The only thing you ever wanted to be

Is a movie star

The only role you ever wanted to play

Is the person you are

You made a cameo appearance in the backseat

Of my mother's car

But I didn't know that it was to be

A very small part

It hit me kind of hard

Chorus:

Did I mean anything to you

Did I just play the fool

In my heart I guess I always knew

You had more to prove

Did I mean anything to you

How much acting did you do

In my heart I guess I always knew

I'd never be more than one among a few

Chorus:

Highlights, highlights

A scene from your life

Highlights, highlights

Just a good time

Old lovers turned critics curse at you

On the silver screen

You tell 'em, "I don't give a damn what you say

Long as you're talkin' 'bout me"

All the pretty girls around you cloud your sexuality

We've only been apart for less than a week

But you make leaving me look easy

Chorus

Years spent fuckin' your sister for your father's affection

Left you confused and your performance lacks direction

So many unanswered questions

Chorus
