The Big Screen

Life doesn't fit on the big screen 
 And I'm just a bit part in the scene 
 Sitting in the dark in the back row 
 Nobody's watching me 
 The lights all come on 
 And life carries on 
 I still love you 
 On the big screen 
 Uhhh, on the big screen. 

 This won't turn out like the movies 
 Cause actors wash off their bruises 
 Believing all the madness 
 We're over the gallows they nailed me on 
 They cut from the scene 
 And wake from the dream 
 And I still love you 
 On the big screen 
 Uhhh, on the big screen. 

 The big screen's aflame with desire 
 While we're fighting fire with fire 
 What I've already said? 
 Nobody to care and carry me home 
 The plans that we make 
 The last serenade 
 The roles that we take 
 The electric parade 
 I still love you 
 On the big screen 
 Ooh, on the big screen.
