Bad Actor

Bad Actor Lyrics by Merle Haggard

Intro Verse 1 I've Never Been Much At Making Believe Don't Have Any Tricks Hidden Up My Sleeve If Life Is A Comedy, Where's All The Laughter? 'Cause Here On The Stage, I'm A Bad Actor Verse 2 I Don't Know What You Want Me To Know So I'll Take The Small Parts In Our Family Show Tell Me Which Hero You Want Me To Play How Should I Feel And What Do I Say? Chorus Pretending To Care, Pretending To Cry You Say I'll Be There And I Say I'll Try Secondhand Feelings Are Always A Factor In My Starring Role As A Bad Actor Interlude Please Let Me Know What You Want Me To See And Where Do You Want Me To Be? In This Old Mirror, I'm Just A Reflection But I Might Be Brilliant, If You'd Give Direction Verse 3 I Have A Problem Of Knowing What's Real All My Emotions, I Borrow And Steal Faking My Way Through Every Day And Trying To Act Like It's Better That Way Chorus Pretending To Care, Pretending To Cry You Say I'll Be There And I Say I'll Try Secondhand Feelings Are Always A Factor In My Starring Role As A Bad Actor Coda
