Academy Is - Slow Down

Close the door and take the stairs
Up or down? Ups and downs
Don't pretend you've never been there
You kiss me like an overdramatic actor who's starving for work
With one last shot to make it happen
You've won the role, you've played your part,
You've been cordially invited
But I'm not impressed, and I'm definitely not excited
'Cause the film runs a shallow budget, and the writer's subject script isn't any deeper
So dive right in

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
Hey you, who are you kidding?
I'm not like them, I won't buy in
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
Hey you, who are you kidding?
Don't quit 'til 47
Then we'll turn it up and we'll play a little faster

Take back everything you ever said
You never meant a word of it. You never did.
Take back everything you said.
You never meant a word of it. You never did.
She said 'Alright, Alright, slow down!"
Oh no, oh no, we won't
'Cause I regret every thing that I said
To ever make her feel like she was something special,
Or that she ever really mattered.
Did she ever really matter?

Hollywood hills and suburban thrills,
Hey you, who are you kidding?
I'm not like them. I won't buy in.
