[00:01.97]She stole my daydreams
[00:04.58]She stole my air guitar
[00:07.68]Exterior Man on lawn alone at dawn
[00:12.68]Packed the typewriter
[00:15.55]And drove off in her car
[00:18.74]A battered automobile drives past state line sign
[00:23.70]And now I know that I'll rue the day
[00:29.21]I let her get away
[00:35.30]I need a haircut
[00:37.60]I've got myself to blame
[00:40.67]A gloved hand spins a combination
[00:42.50]Dial quickly opening a large wall safe
[00:45.06]He wasn't so fine
[00:48.88]To my beginner's mind
[00:51.92]Motel The other man severe refined
[00:56.66]But with that big talk
[00:59.77]I should have seen the signs
[01:02.96]Woman enters and they embrace He packs duct tape rope
[01:07.96]And right on her he was fixing his aim
[01:13.58]He pushed me out of frame
[01:19.26]I need new head shots
[01:21.89]I've got myself to blame
[01:25.15]She spins her ring to hide the diamond in her hand
[01:27.34]And drops a gun into a small beaded purse
[01:29.53]Know the diff between a script and a spec
[01:33.03]It's a test just the stage directions left
[01:35.03]And no camera angles to use mm-hmm
[01:41.42]A novice script may seem strange in this format
[01:43.86]But like any other business
[01:45.30]It's a standard that the writer gets used to aw-huh
[01:52.50]My scenes are cut out
[01:55.38]I'm just on speaker phone
[01:58.56]For exposition
[02:06.42]I'm out here on my own
[02:12.12]
[02:14.60]And as the night falls on this sleepy town
[02:20.20]The iris closes down
[02:26.14]I missed my close-up
[02:28.45]I've got myself to blame
[02:31.72]
[02:33.59]I've got myself to blame
[02:37.84]
[02:39.61]I've got myself to blame
