Lyrics

Cameras are Running

I, I will do scenes for you
You, you will do scenes for me
Cameras are running on me and you
Just act like the one you?ve agreed to be

Nothing much happens in our little movie
Weeds grow in the garden and coffee gets cold
Slow motion kitchen sink documentary
But here in your notebook a story unfolds

Mysterious stranger, intrigue and danger
A chase in the moonlight
The soundtrack is swelling for dramatic appeal
You?re climbing the clock tower
It?s chiming your last hour
Unless you can catch me
It feels so damn life-like; you?d swear it was real

You, you will do scenes for me
I, I will do scenes for you
Cameras are running on you and me
So hide all the things that you?d rather do

No sex or violence in our little movie
No particular conflict for us to resolve
We sit in our bathrobes watching the dailies
But here in my notebook a crime to be solved

Mysterious stranger, intrigue and danger
A chase in the moonlight
The soundtrack is swelling for dramatic appeal
You?re climbing the clock tower
It?s chiming your last hour
Unless you can catch me
It feels so damn life-like; you?d swear it was real
