Elstree

(Action!)

I had a dream on a back lot

And saw my life like a long shot

Of smiling faces in a picture parade

Of all the stills from the films that you made

That we would see in the Essoldo

After drinking coffee at the Gioconda

Elstree, remember me

I had a part in a B-Movie

I played a man from history

Elstree, a-look at me (Oh-oh-oh)

Now I work for the BBC (Oh-oh-oh)

Life is not what it used to be

I took no dives in the fight scenes

I had a stuntman, keeped my suit clean

There’s no technology to fake-up a song

They stop the orchestra if you get it wrong

Elstree, remember me

I had a part in a B-Movie

I played a man from history

Elstree, a-look at me (Oh-oh-oh)

Now I work for the BBC (Oh-oh-oh)

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 in

Elstree, remember me

I had a part in a B-Movie

I played a man from history

Elstree (Oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh)

Elstree (Oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh)

Elstree

Elstree (Oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh)

Elstree

(Cut!)
