[Chorus: Ross Lynch & Maia Mitchell, Ross Lynch, Maia Mitchell]
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
You gotta live the dream
The lights-camera-action thing
The water's technicolor blue
And the waves don't miss a cue
Not a hair is out of place
Every line's the perfect take
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen

[Verse 1: Ross Lynch & Maia Mitchell]
Whoa-ho, it's better in a story
Always clever, never wordy, you got the part
Whoa-ho, it's better when you wake up
Minty breath and perfect makeup, you're a work of art
And no one ever breaks your heart

[Chorus: Ross Lynch & Maia Mitchell, Ross Lynch, Maia Mitchell]
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen (Yeah)
No matter where you've been
Good times are zoomin' in
You can dream but no one sleeps
Say a bad word and it bleeps (Bleeps)
You can have and eat your cake
Never need a bathroom break
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
[Verse 2: Ross Lynch, Maia Mitchell]
Whoa-ho, it's better on location
'Cause it feels like a vacation, super fun
Whoa-ho, bring the feature to the people
If it's good, they'll make a sequel when we're done
The surf is up under the sun

[Bridge 1: Ross Lynch & Maia Mitchell]
Hey
The good guy saves the day
The bad guys run away
Everybody dances when the music starts to play

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge 2: Ross Lynch & Maia Mitchell, Ross Lynch, Maia Mitchell, ]
You cats are always cool (Hey)
Never have to go to school (Yup)
Get ready for your close-up, it's the happy-ending rule
You gotta play the scene

[Chorus: Ross Lynch & Maia Mitchell, Ross Lynch, Maia Mitchell]
(You gotta play the scene, yeah yeah) You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen (Up on the silver screen)
You gotta live the dream
The lights-camera-action thing
'Cause it's better in a movie
When you met her it was groovy
It's where true love is always true
When you met him, then you knew
You gotta play the scene
Up on the silver screen
