Head Shot

Lyrics

I graduated from Northwestern two whole years ago I was the star there Was the best one in the main state show Then I moved to New York With all of my rep and all of my pep in tow And it's really mad and I email dad And I lie about auditions that I haven't had It would make me sad But recently I isolated the thing that is bringing me down I know what I need to work on in order to conquer this town There's nothing like a plan The motivation that it brings takes away the daily stings to know Things'll be better with a better headshot Things'll be better with a better headshot Things'll be better with a better headshot When I got a picture that looks like me then they'll see That things'll be better with a better headshot Yeah, yeah Walk in the room and no one notices I've entered it I clear my throat, I make a scene, I do a double split And I try not to come off as desperate as I desperately offer to sing elegy And I wanna die, and the time moves slow but at least I know Things'll be better with a better headshot Things'll be better with a better headshot Things'll be better with a better headshot When I got a picture that looks like me then they'll see Things'll be better with a better headshot Yeah, yeah Because the girl in that picture is scared, not me Because the girl in that picture is blonde, not me Because the girl in that picture ain't broken yet By god, who's she? not me And not me So I save enough I buy a dress Go to a studio I'm brave, I'm tough, I'm not a mess A breath I walk in slow And the woman who's taking the picture's An out of work actress So I up and go And I know it's rude, but hey Whatever, I'm just not in the mood today I'll reschedule, it's all okay Things will be okay Things will be okay Head shot Head shot Head shot When I got a picture unmistakably me then they'll see, see! Things'll be better with a better head shot (Yeah yeah yeah yeah) Things'll be better with a better head shot (Yeah yeah yeah yeah) Things'll be better with a better head shot (Yeah yeah yeah yeah) Things'll be better with a better head shot
