Big John Shaft — текст песни (belle and sebastian)

I`ll make another movie
The same one as the year before
Take a tired idea
Put it in the hands of Hollywood
I need to talk to someone
I`ve been living someone else`s life
I don`t get no mail at my house anymore
My manager`s bride

I`m sitting on a jet plane
I`ll see my baby soon enough
I won`t take her to the movie
I`m worried that the lines become all blurred
I couldn`t help but feeling something
When the boss told us to act that way
I`m ashamed of my profession
I would do the same again

I`ll make another movie
Same one as the year before
I`m looking for a story
Something ludicrous to come up from the street
I won`t play another heavyweight
I won`t play another big John Shaft
Put me in a frock and leave me to recite
Maybe my career will die
