Got a job in the film industry
All my friends are jealous
They say I'm living the dream
"Hey, what you do again? Tell us!"
I work all day
In a tiny darkened room
I think syncing sound
Is pretty fucking cool
I'm an A.E.
You don't know me
I work behind the scenes
And stay outta sight
Syncing all the footage
They shot last night
A.E.
I’m an A.E.
I'm the editing tech support line
You can gimme a call anytime you like
When you get an error on your screen
I say, "Not a problem, babe, just restart the machine"
I know that doing this job won't make me rich
But I just love being the editor's bitch
'Cause I'm an A.E.
You know don't me
Creating documents nobody reads
Updating bins and assembling scenes
A.E.
I'm an A.E.
Nobody listens to me at all
Camera guys drive me up the wall
Still life doesn't get any better
Than being an assistant editor
An A.E.
You don't know me
I do a lot more than sound effects
The position gets pretty complex
For an A.E.
An A.E., like
iPhone, Go-Pro
Nothing has timecode
No grade
No slate
Time we all appreciate the
A.E.
You don't know me
The director doesn't even know my name
But I'm saving the movie all the same
A.E.
I'm an A.E.
If I hear him say, “We’ll fix it in post”
I’m gonna punch him right in his fucking throat
A.E.
I'm an A.E.
Let’s all put our hands together
For the motherfuckin' assistant editors
A.E.
I'm an A.E.
A.E.
I'm an A.E.
"Hey Mark, when you've got some time
can you look that shot I'm too lazy to find?"
"Sure!"
