Don't Mean Nothing

Small01 Lots of new things happening. But I can't talk about any of them. Yet.

Yeah, I'm a tease.

I did finish a rough draft of a new script today. Man that sucker's got holes in it. And it's a mess... As I've been so unfocused lately with some new career developments. But the truth is, it DON'T MEAN NOTHING TILL YOU SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE.

Do you know that song...?

Yeah, it's another one of my all time being an actor/writer faves. I find myself singing it coming out of auditions or when paperwork gets sent my way...

Sing it Richard Marx! 

Welcome to the big time.
Youre bound to be a star
And even if you dont go all the way,
I know that youll go far
This race is for rats, it can turn you upside down
Aint no one you can count on in this sleazy little town, oh no

Lots of promises in the dark
But dont you open your heart

Chorus

Cause it dont mean nothin
The words that they say
Dont mean nothin
These games that people play
No, it dont mean nothin
No victim, no crime
It dont mean nothin
Till you sign it on the dotted line

The director smiles as you walk in the door
He says, I love your work, babe but
Youre just not what were looking for
Its never what but who it is you know
So easy to get stuck in all that california snow

Take a good look around and youll find
People tryin to mess with your mind

Repeat chorus

Hollywood can be so lonely
Make you the winner of a losing fight
But the party is never over
Cause stars are always shining
Doesnt matter if its day or night

The producer says, let me change a line or two
And a little bit of something can look awfully good to you
And you want to scream, but you gotta keep it all inside
When youre trying to make a living,
There aint no such thing as pride, no

Lots of promises in the dark
But dont you open your heart

Chorus

It dont mean nothing at all. . .
