Movie Star

There’s a famous movie star
In the restaurant we are
So close and yet so far away from meeting
Close enough to stare at her
Like a chainsaw murderer
Though I’d prefer to touch and go to heaven
Try to understand:
I’m her biggest fan
Not some also-ran or crazy villain

Do you see the movie star?
Do you see the movie star?
Do you see the movie star?
Movie Star

Look at Mr. Olive Skin
Leather trousers, lucky him
Shit-eating grin and eating with perfection
How an Oscar winner can
Patronize this younger man
I’ll never understand and I don’t wish to
Does she notice me
Waiting patiently?
Maybe she’ll agree to sign my menu

Chorus

They are getting up and leaving
Me an ordinary evening
Ordinary conversation
Talking ‘bout my generation

Chorus
