"Breaking Into Acting" lyrics

Matt Berninger & Hand Habits Lyrics

"Breaking Into Acting"

Ever since you were a kid, you could cry on command
Everybody said it's a gift
You should use it whenever you can
You can do it big or you can do it like you don't really care
Just tell you where
Turns out almost anyone can do it

It's a scam
Always have a cheatsheet in your jacket
You're breaking into acting
You'll do anything to be discovered
It's gettin' out of hand
Your mouth is always full of blood packets
You're breaking into acting
You're gonna make me a fan

Give you something you can work with
And you're gonna make it worth the price of tickets
You've read everything they've ever written about
How to use your eyes to succeed in business
Let me know when we should start
Or are we already started, I don't care
Is anybody there?

It's a scam
Always have a cheatsheet in your jacket
You're breaking into acting
You'll do anything to be discovered
It's gettin' out of hand
Your mouth is always full of blood packets
You're breaking into acting
I completely understand

You give all you got
But for the record
I don't believe it at all
Not for a second

It's a scam
Always have a cheatsheet in your jacket
You're breaking into acting
You'll do anything to be discovered
It's gettin' out of hand
Your mouth is always full of blood packets
You're breaking into acting
You're gonna make me a fan
