lyrics

M.T.'s quite the character
Everyone loves how he acts
But if life were a movie, he'd be that ass
Who comes in just to give them laughs
Ha ha

Not a dull or deep word to find
Because he's sharply and shallowly drawn the blinds
That turn on his deepest skin
That turn on him like an old friend
How sad

It's a lucidly lonely lie/life
Sitting in the bright stage light
It pulls on his deepest ledge
Pulls on him like a loose thread
How mad

Won't get much better than that
That's a big party of why it's sad
He acts until he gets his cool
But most actors are hapless fools
Too bad

The way he acts has great technique
Gets normal stance, then his double speak
Though his eyes seem to shit love
Actors, they just need a hug
How sad

The way the shot comes out
It never seems right
He hates his lines/cues
He eats the lights

M.T.'s quite the character
Everyone loves how he acts
But if life were a drama, he'd cut it fast
He thinks to himself as he laughs
Ha ha
