You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
You gotta live the dream
The "lights, camera, action" thing
The water's Technicolor blue, and the waves don't miss a cue
Not a hair is out of place, every line's the perfect take
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
Whoa-ho, it's better in a story
Always clever, never wordy, you got the part
Whoa-ho, it's better when you wake up
Minty breath and perfect makeup, you're a work of art
And no one ever breaks your heart
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
(Yeah, yeah) no matter where you've been
Good times are zoomin' in
You can dream but no one sleeps, say a bad word and it bleeps
You can have and eat your cake, never need a bathroom break
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
Whoa-ho, it's better on location
'Cause it feels like a vacation, super fun
Whoa-ho, bring the feature to the people
If it's good, they'll make a sequel when we're done
The surf is up under the sun
(Hey) the good guy saves the day, the bad guys run away
Everybody dances when the music starts to play
You cats are always cool (hey), never have to go to school
(Yup) get ready for your close-up, it's the happy-ending rule
(You gotta play the scene) you gotta play the scene (yeah-eh)
Up on the silver screen
(Up on the silver screen) you gotta live the dream
The "lights, camera, action" thing
'Cause it's better in a movie, when you met her, it was groovy
It's where love is always true, when you met him, then you knew
You gotta play the scene (play the scene)
Up on the silver screen
