Текст песни: Big Time Underground + перевод

don’t you come in here

and tell me how the story goes

cause i know a lot of things you don’t know

and they don’t either

and no one will understand

how this quilt got pieced together

and don’t even try to start throwing things

i’ve glued down all the furniture

and breakables

i’ve put away the best pieces and all that we have left are our hands

and what we hold in them

so i could make you a cup of tea

or you could kick a hole in the door

are you going for an oscar

or are you happy

with an independent film award

would you like to give your lovely speeches

or are you content to stay underground

only recognized in your hometown

so don’t you come in here

and say i broke your heart

it’s cheap for an ending,

it doesn’t even begin to start

and the audience will never fall for this one

you’ll be called an over-actor

you’d better go for subtle or downcast

so i could make you a cup of tea

and you could kick a hole in the door

are you going for an oscar

or are you happy

with an independent film award

would you like to give your lovely speeches

or are you content to stay underground

only recognized in your hometown

‘cause everyone loves the lovable loser

when he’s up on the big silver screen

hold your head high,

pretend that you don’t see the holes

‘cause only by playing dumb

are you gonna steal this scene
