Speedy Justice - What's Your Movie? Lyrics

This world is your movie, baby
It's your novel
What kind of story are you going to make it be
Are you going to make this world a drama
With heartbreak, betrayal
Or a rom-com, like a fairytale for everybody
Are you going to make this life a tragedy
Due to a simple twist of fate
What's your movie
Is it a short by William Burroughs
And Timothy Leary
Or some variation of The Color Purple
Are you coming-of-age comedy with new ideals
What's your movie
What's your part
Are you the brave lion's laugh
And danger's face
Or beautiful and wise mage
Caring mystery
Maybe you have a heart for the ages
Healing everyone
Possibly street-smart Slytherin
What's your story
Are you taking a stand for the big things
Or just what your small decade values seem
Are you ignoring the screams
Trying to expose the fear
Are you buying into economic slavery
For the resources you need here
To fight this temporary social order
What's important in your story
Who's directing
Who's writing all this crap
Like a TV melodrama
Is this life truly like a movie or book
Or a play that unravels as you watch
How come some people inevitably get the lead
And you're always a f*cking extra
Just a lonely, perpetual understudy
Who's writing the lights on this show
Why are the sets falling apart
Why are all the seats empty night after night
What's your story and what's in your heart
You can be the master author
You can direct this play like a boss
You don't need to be a perfect actor
Just pay the players what it costs
This world is your movie
It's your novel
What kind of story are you going to make it be
Are you going to make this world a drama
With heartbreak, betrayal, or a rom-com
Like a fairy tale for everybody
Are you going to make this life a tragedy
Due to simple twists of fate
What's your movie
