Charlotte Gainsbourg - Jamais (Live) lyrics

I told you before that this is the end you'll never work in this town again jamais you think you know me, that's your trouble never fall in love with a body double jamais i stick to the script and i go with the plan and frankly my dear i never gave a damn jamais never even scratched the surface, though you're picking through my bones it's the performance of a lifetime it's my only starring role your leading lady needs direction your leading lady sleeps alone you got the surface and substance confused don't believe what you read in those interviews jamais i can act like i'm dumb, i can act like i'm clever you thought that was me? oh well, i never jamais so just what is real and just what is fake? well in life you never get to do a second take jamais never even scratched the surface though you're picking through my bones though the names and dates are altered the story's still my own the performance of a lifetime my only starring role in a cast of many thousands no one's essential to the plot every extra, every superstar must now vacate the lot in the performance of a lifetime i make the final cut
