The Lyrics

A follow-up to yesterday's song, here is that parody song about the SAG-AFTRA strike that was happening today.
I think you're funny
You think I'm smart
'Cause I can name the actors
All by heart
Almost touching
But too shy to start
Eyes wide open
It's way past dark

It's too late to rally now
The picketing is wide awake
The picketing is pullin' out
Too wired to come down
It's the acting on strike
And the first day SAG-AFTRA is on strike

(Ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)

Did you get picketed
Or did you wait?
Did you ever go on the rally
Down by the lake?
Nights still find me
Lying on strike
'Cause every time I close my eyes
I see your face

It's too late to picket now (Too late to sleep now)
The picket is wide awake
The picketing is pullin' out
Too high to pick up (Too high to pick up)
The acting on strike
Was the first day SAG-AFTRA is on strike

Oh, the last time we were picketing
The first thing I remember
Every time a big actor comes
Oh, but it's too late to sleep now
It's the acting on strike
And the first time SAG-AFTRA is on strike

(Ooh)
(Ooh)
Do-do-do-do (Ooh), do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do (Ooh), do-do-do-do

The last time we were remembered
The first thing I have picketed
Every time SAG-AFTRA comes

The last time we were remembered
The first thing I have picketed
Every time SAG-AFTRA comes

But it's too late to sleep now
It's the acting on strike
And the first day SAG-AFTRA is on strike
SAG-AFTRA is on strike today!
