Jason Isbell - Brand New Kind Of Actress lyrics

You said you heard of me, so why are you so afraid?

some minor changes made, you missed the big parade

another filthy day, another Hollywood sign

you missed the caution line, and you just walked right in.

YOU WALKED RIGHT IN

there's somebody here, somebody you once knew

you took a liking to, your conversation cues

the way you cut your hair, the time you did it yourself

you're like a hired help, the way you fit right in

THE WAY YOU FIT RIGHT IN

(chorus)----

'CAUSE YOU'RE A BRAND NEW KIND OF ACTRESS

YOU'RE A BRAND NEW KIND OF ACTRESS

YOU'RE THE SAME OLD STUBBORN WAITRESS, BABY

YOU'RE A BRAND NEW KIND OF ACTRESS

you swim the the other way, you put your seat upstream

so many hopes and dreams, so many in betweens

your new reality, just make yourself at home

he's always watchin' me, he' never been alone

SO YOU JUST WALKED RIGHT IN

(chorus)----

-guitar solo-

you met that greasy guy, I don't care what you did

in 1965, before the wife and kid

I'll leave my jacket on, so sorry I can't stay

just put the piece away.

just put the piece away, let me call a cab

we'll go our separate ways, we'll go our separate ways

just put the piece away, I don't care what you did

back in younger days, just put the piece away

PUT IT AWAY

(chorus)----

'CAUSE I'M A BRAND NEW KIND OF ACTRESS

I'M A BRAND NEW KIND OF ACTRESS

I'M THE SAME OLD STUBBORN WAITRESS, BABY

I'M A BRAND NEW KIND OF ACTRESS
