Lyrics
Wanna be in a Movie
by Neil Ebanks © Copyright 2003
Verse 1:
When you see all that?s transpired in my life,
You?ll wanna make it into a movie
Or a tv show for Wednesday night (You?ll wanna buy the rights)
When you see how sick my family can be,
You?ll be screaming out ?A Star is Born?
You?ll forget about the Ozbournes
Chorus:
I wanna be in a movie, I wanna be in a TV show
I wanna meet the guy with a million bucks
I don?t care if I play the slut in your movie.
Just wanna be in your TV show
I wanna face my fears, sing for Simon,
Please don?t throw me off the island.
If you cast me, I won?t let you down?
I wanna be in your movie.
Verse 2
When I see how cool reality can be,
I wanna be a part of all the rage
Wanna let the world into my place (Every Tuesday night)
I want my ?freak-outs? and ?Chills? and blind dates caught on tape
When the whole world?s watchin?, you just can?t lose
When the camera?s watchin? your every move.
Chorus:
I wanna be in a movie, I wanna be in a TV show
I wanna meet the guy with a million bucks
I don?t care if I play the slut in your movie.
Just wanna be in your TV show
I wanna face my fears, sing for Simon,
Please don?t throw me off the island.
If you cast me, I won?t let you down?
I wanna be in your movie.
