Josh Ritter - Bad Actress Lyrics

shes a bad actress- but hey
you give her the big lines anyway
though her eyes are big as Canada
and the hips are South Australia
and the shoulder blade is Africa
looking out on South America
Im out here on the sea
and her heart aint where it oughta be
shes a bad actress- but hey
shes got a big part in your play
now my apartment lies awake at night
it tosses every time she sighs
tries to take it easy on her eyes
but I can feel it giving up the fight
my whole buildings on its last floors
her hearts not in it anymore
she said she gave her heart to you
if it was precious whyd you lose it
but if it was golden itd shine
if its big it wont be hard to find
if its real it stains your hands like wine
you can look but there is no use trying
cause no matter what she said the truth
is that she never gave her heart to you
shes a bad actress
bad actress
