John Wesley Harding - Hey! Director! Lyrics




Hey Director! Is this my scene?
I haven't got my lines down
Just like I'm in a bad dream
30 Years in make-up
But I still look like me
I wonder if this film will be
What it was meant to be

Director! Is this my mark?
What's my motivation?
I'm in the dark
You'll find me in the rushes
Looking completely lost
Moses or the moneymen
Who knows who calls the shots but...

Are you ready for my close-up?
I could do it with my eyes shut
I live when you say 'action'
I die when you say 'cut'

Hey Director! Mr. de Mille
If it's the death of you
Who'll execute your will?
Leave me the casting couch
I played my best part upon
You get the thing you want
And then that thing is gone

Are you ready for my close-up?
I could do it with my eyes shut
I live when you say 'action'
I die when you say 'cut'

Director! Let credits roll
Now this fiasco's over
We're all in the hole
I can't believe you talked me into this
So easily!
I'm going back to music
That makes more sense to me
