fishboy - actor doctor lyrics

Loading...

oh how i tried
to make the most of acting
but the most i could find
was an infomercial part
for a toaster with lights
i played the 13th extra
as i watched late at night
epiphanies did start

since 1954
there’s been a high demand
for nurses and doctors
in movies and tv
so to keep my job secure
i had a master plan
i’d do ten thousand hours of method practice
just so i could be

a doctor
an actor playing a doctor
waiting for the offer of
the role to change my life
a doctor
an actor playing a doctor
but i’m not yet a great actor and
the staff is getting wise

darling you know
i had the best intentions
but i could not control
the way our hearts collide
so i’m letting you go
’cause i can’t face consequences
if my lies are exposed
and you’re accessorized

and one day you’ll understand
i had no other choice
you’ll turn on your tv and
you’ll recognize a voice
behind a podium
shouting to a nurse
a nurse that he once loved so long ago

is an actor
an actor who was a doctor
your long lost former lover
holding in his hand
an oscar
for the indie hit of the winter
where he plays a lovesick doctor
a performance he commands

and so tonight i break it off
but instead of crying, oh, you start to laugh

and you admit
you’re not a nurse
you are a writer-researcher
investigating hospitals
(hey, hey!)

and you admit
(an actor playing a doctor)
you’re not a nurse
(waiting for the offer of)
you are a writer-researcher
(the role to change my life)
investigating hospitals

and i wonder when my life is over
if i’ll look back and discover
my best days were the times
i spent as a doctor
