Brandy Clark - Soap Opera

[Intro]
Ain't we all the stars
Ain't we all the stars
Playing the leading part
In our own soap opera

[Verse 1]
Sherry shampooed 'til she got her own chair
Now she's playing shrink to every head of hair
A mani or a pedi or color or a cut
8 hours a day, it's the same old stuff
They got trouble with their ex and his next wife
Sands through the hourglass, days of our lives

[Chorus]
Ain't we all the stars
Ain't we all the stars
Playing the leading part
In a day time drama
Young and restless hearts
Duckin' and throwing darts
Yeah we're all big stars
In our own soap opera

[Verse 2]
Jimmy wipes down the bar, makes a mean martini
They tip it on back and give him the skinny
Shaken or stirred or a bottle or a draft
They're bearing their souls to bottom of the glass
They got trouble with their girl and their girlfriend's mama
This one life to live got a whole lotta drama

[Chorus]
Ain't we all the stars
Ain't we all the stars
Playing the leading part
In a day time drama
Young and restless hearts
Duckin' and throwing darts
Yeah we're all big stars
In our own soap opera
Yeah, yeah

[Outro]
This town might be little bitty
But just ask Sherry or Jimmy
If Hollywood was handing out Emmys
We'd all be saying gimme, gimme, gimme
