You Deserve an Oscar

Clap your hands and catch a fly Bite an apple, shut your eyes Moisturize, your skin is dry Goes the ringing of the bell Tell your friends you're doing well Call a doctor about your health And I think you deserve an Oscar For pretending nothing's wrong Every day, there's something else But you carry yourself Like the greatest actor Acting like the world is not Breaking up before your eyes You deserve a prize Ooh Take a supplement for sun Try and sleep with everyone Know you're doing nothing wrong Kiss the season on the mouth Go for walks and hug a clown All the funny ones are down And I think you deserve an Oscar For pretending nothing's wrong Every day, there's something else But you carry yourself Like the greatest actor Acting like the world is not Breaking up before your eyes You deserve a prize Watch a war under the sheets Get a coffee down the street Plastic bags in harmony Everybody's incomplete And who's the best at saving face? Who's the toughest in the race? Forget the Pope, you have the grace You're my nomination And you deserve an Oscar For pretending nothing's wrong Every day, you face the scenes But you put on your jeans Like the greatest actor Acting like the world is not Breaking up and slowly dying You deserve a prize --- You Deserve an Oscar - Matt Maltese
