Make No Mistake Lyrics

I bet you'd feel like talking if I was filming a movie
About your life and what it really means
From the outside looking in
As shadows fill the wall of a cave in a downtown theater
All your mistakes add up, well, it's a real tearjerker
Your life is such a mess, but everyone's impressed
When I play
Make no mistake
I play, make no mistake

It's not the way it should be, it's how it's gonna be
It's not a flashback, it's a memory
All eyes are fixed on you
Fade in, your past crashes in, waves on the lawn
Fade out, your last laugh lasts a little too long
In your contract, there's a clause, so you better save your applause
When I play
Make no mistake
I play, make no mistake

I bet you'd find inspiration if I loaned you a car With a map to the homes of porno stars
I know you dream about that stuff
On video when you're alone you can't get enough of her
But inside her own home, boy, you can't get it up for her
Send in the stunt man
Your family will be so proud
You're gonna have to peel them from the couch
When I play
Make no mistake
I play, make no mistake

If I say act right now in something you believe in
I bet you'd say all the good ideas have already been taken
So let the vultures have their way
Emptying the shelves in the bargain basements
Filling the same frames with different places
Take one last look at yourself
Because the film is running out
