[Verse 1]
I was grinding through my day gig
Stackin' cutouts at the Strand
When in walks Franny from NYU
We were quite an item back then
We talked about her films and shows and CDs
Don't know what else
She said, "Yeah, Hollywood's been good to me
But tell me—how about yourself?"

[Chorus]
"I'm still working on that novel
But I'm just about to quit
'Cause I'm worrying about the future now
Or maybe this is it
It's not all that I thought it would be
What a shame about me"

[Verse 2]
She said, "Talk to me, do you ever see
Anybody else from our old crew?
Bobby Dakine won the Bunsen Prize
He's coming out with something new
Alan owns a chain of Steamer Heavens
Barry is the software king
And somebody told me in the early eighties
You were gonna be the next big thing"
