Mack and Brady:
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
You gotta live the dream
The "lights, camera, action" thing
Brady:
The water's technicolor blue
And the waves don't miss a cue
Mack:
Not a hair is out of place
Every line's a perfect take
Mack and Brady:
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
Whoa
It's better in a story
Always clever, never wordy
You got the part
Whoa
It's better when you wake up
Minty breath and perfect make-up
You're a work of art
And no one ever breaks your heart
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
No matter where you've been
Good times are zooming in
Mack:
You can dream but no one sleeps
Say a bad word and it bleeps (Bleep)
Brady:
You can have and eat your cake
Never need a bathroom break
Mack and Brady:
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
Whoa
It's better on location
Cause it feels like a vacation
Super fun
Whoa
Bring the feature to the people
If it's good they'll make a sequel
When we're done
The surf is up under the sun
Hey!
The good guy saves the day
The bad guys run away
Everybody dances when the music starts to play
Mack:
Cats are always cool
Brady:
Never have to go to school
Mack and Brady:
Get ready for your close up
It's the happy-ending rule
Mack:
You gotta play the scene
Mack and Brady:
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
You gotta live dream
The "lights, camera, action" thing
Brady:
Cause it's better in a movie
When you're mad or if it's groovy
Mack:
And true love is always true
When you met him then you knew
Mack and Brady:
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
