Charlotte Gainsbourg - Jamais - Текст песни

I told you before that this is the end

you'll never work in this town again

jamais


you think you know me, that's your trouble

never fall in love with a body double

jamais


i stick to the script and i go with the plan

and frankly my dear i never gave a damn

jamais


never even scratched the surface,

though you're picking through my bones

it's the performance of a lifetime

it's my only starring role

your leading lady needs direction

your leading lady sleeps alone


you got the surface and substance confused

don't believe what you read in those interviews

jamais


i can act like i'm dumb, i can act like i'm clever

you thought that was me ? oh well, i never

jamais


so just what is real and just what is fake ?

well in life you never get to do a second take

jamais


never even scratched the surface

though you're picking through my bones

though the names and dates are altered

the story's still my own

the performance of a lifetime

my only starring role


in a cast of many thousands

no one's essential to the plot

every extra, every superstar

must now vacate the lot

in the performance of a lifetime

i make the final cut
