Lyrics
Zach Braff, you look just like my dad Back when I thought I had the best one Oh what a life it could have been Me in the cradle, you on the screen
But you're too young to be a father to me You're too young to be a father to me
Hey, Catherine Deneuve you look just like my mother used to when she loved me Oh, when she loved me! Oh what a life, just you and I Learning to walk as you read your lines
But you're too old to be a mother to me You're too old to be a mother to me Surely you're not saying TV lied I truly believe that they would love me back in real life
Hey kid at the bar, you know who you are I've been staring down as I play this out of tune guitar and Oh just think, what we could be I swear I'll dress cooler if you just go home with me
But you're too young to be a lover to me I'm getting old but I forget sometimes, you see Surely you're not saying TV lies I truly believe that I will have it on my life
So don't you waste my time Don't you waste my time On small talk and cheap wine
