Craig Finn - Screenwriters School lyrics

[Verse 1] Now I've been feeling panicked Still life on spinning planets I met this girl and she's a dancer She said "Hit me one more time" Some student took a picture Some lovers in the gutter It was praised by our instructors Something tender in the dirt And we all went back to work [Chorus] It's been hard to discern What's a dream and what's true There's an officer down At the screenwriters school We got these books about film We take these photos of food There's an officer down At the screenwriters school [Verse 2] Now I've been to dark parties Went there with bright people There was cameras on the carpets Video interviews The waiting room, some magazines French retreats, Italian jeans My fingernails have fallen off But I keep flipping through [Chorus] It's been hard to discern What's a dream and what's true There's an officer down At the screenwriters school We got these books about film We take these photos of food There's an officer down At the screenwriters school The wheelchairs in the windows A room with a view There's an officer down At the screenwriters school In The Name Of The Father Anatomy of a Murder Dog Day Afternoon I came here to make movies Not to shoot something blue There's an officer down At the screenwriters school There's an officer down
