I told you before that this is the end
You'll never work in this town again, Jamais
You think you know me, that's your trouble
Never fall in love with a body double, JamaisI stick to the script and I go with the plan
And frankly my dear I never gave a damn, JamaisNever even scratched the surface
Though you're picking through my bones
It's the performance of a lifetime
It's my only starring roleYour leading lady needs direction
Your leading lady sleeps aloneYou got the surface and substance confused
Don't believe what you read in those interviews, Jamais
I can act like I'm dumb, I can act like I'm clever
You thought that was me, oh well, I never, JamaisSo just what is real and just what is fake
Well, in life you never get to do a second take, JamaisNever even scratched the surface
Though you're picking through my bones
Though the names and dates are altered
The story's still my ownThe performance of a lifetime
My only starring roleIn a cast of many thousands, no one's essential to the plot
Every extra, every superstar must now vacate the lot
In the performance of a lifetime
I make the final cut
