ACTION

I had a dream on a back lot

I saw my life like a long shot

I smile at faces in a picture parade

of all the stills from the films that you've made

and we would see me a ????

up there drinking coffee on the G O condo



Elstree, Remember me

I had a part in a B movie

I played a man from history

Elstree, I look at me

Now I work for the BBC

Life is not what it used to be



I took no dives in the fight scene

I had a stuntman keep my suit clean

there's no technology could make up the song

they stop the orchestra and you get it wrong



elstree, remember me

I had a part in a B movie

I played a man from history

Elstree, I look at me

Now I work for the BBC

Life is not what it used to be

Elstree



They made a field into a war zone

I beat the enemy on my own

all the bullets just went over my head

there's no reality and no one dead



elstree, remember me

I had a part in a B movie

I played a man from history

Elstree, I look at me

now I work for the BBC

Life is not what it used to be

Elstree
