Thank the Academy
Make Believe Friends
Music: Laura Espinoza Lyrics: Mindy Milburn
Verse1:
I put my trust in you
Fell on your sword
What a performance you gave
You deserve an award
All in your head it's no surprise,
Mindlessly repeating lines and lies
Already a living legend
You think you have no flaws
When you look in the mirror
Can you hear the applause?
The show is over curtains down
Do you feel lonely in a crowd
Thank the academy baby
All eyes on you
You win the Oscar® for this one
But now I’m through
So well-rehearsed
You told me it was meant to be
You kept me hangin’
Knowing you would cut me free
Now I know your story
I know how it ends
There will be no sequel
This won’t happen again
All the world is your stage
Find someone else to play your game
Thank the academy baby
All eyes on you
You win the Oscar® for this one
But now I’m through
Thank the academy, baby
All eyes on you
You win the Oscar® for this one
But now I’m through
Thank you baby
Thank you baby yeah
Thank you baby
Thank you baby
