[Verse 1]
I don't like the film
I don't like the film
Play it all back
Play it all back
And I don't like the scenery
And I don't like the set so
Pull it all down
Pull it all down
But I like the actors
And I like the show

[Verse 2]
We're so exposed
We're so exposed
Anything can happen
Anything can happen
And don't let them see
And don't let them know
And you wonder why
And you wonder why
Turn off the lights
And turn off the sound

Gary Anthony James Webb (born 8 March 1958), known professionally as Gary Numan, is an English singer, songwriter, composer, musician and record producer.

Born in Hammersmith, West London, he first entered the music industry as lead singer of the new wave band Tubeway Army. After releasing two albums with the band, Numan released his debut solo album The Pleasure Principle in 1979.

With number-one singles “Are ‘Friends’ Electric?” and “Cars”, Numan achieved his peak of mainstream popularity in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but maintains a cult following.
