[Intro] 
D (x4)
[Verse 1] 
[(D)]The credits roll, the camera pans
And [Bbdim7]in the mist our hero stands
He s[G]tarts to speak, then fo[A]lds his hands in p[D]rayer
[(D)]An awkward pause, then what's my line?
There's [Bbdim7]nothing left to say this time
And [G]what would you say to a [A]bad guy who's not th[D]ere?
In [Bm]terms of Roman numerals,
He's IV league with Roman Pol[G]anski
He'd [Bm]win an Oscar every time if he was only given the c[G]hance, [A]He...
[Verse 2] 
...started on the Broadway stage
A product of another age,
An offer and a pilot drew him west
The series bombed, commercials came
And though nobody knew his name
They all recognized the potential he possessed
Deodorants and dental floss
And how much does that new car cost
His acting was methodical in You Don't Need A Medical
He's branded like a racing car,
He's like a movie star with movies
The week of Independence Day,
The casting agent called to say
Your smile could save our m[A7]ovie and the wo[D]rld
[Cborus] 
[Bm]Buy buy buy buy
[G]Sell sell sell
How [A]well you learn
To [F#m]not discern [F#7/C#]who's
[Bm]Foe and who is f[G]riend
We'll own them [A]all in the end
[Verse 3] 
It goes like this, we have no choice; the minarets,
The wailing voice
And vaguely Celtic music fills the air
We choose a foreigner to hate,
The new Iraq gets more irate
We really know nothing about them, and no one cares
Aladdin and the forty thieves
Enhanced by brand new special effects
Saddam and his cow disease spiced up
With some gratuitous sex
A movie's made, a war is won
A low-speed chase, a smoking gun
Distracts us while the actor takes the stand
[Cborus] 
Buy buy buy buy
Sell sell sell
How well you learn
To not discern
Who's foe and who is friend
We'll own them all[A7] in the e[D]nd
[End on D]
