David Cross (born April 4, 1964) is an American actor, writer and stand-up comedian perhaps best known for his work on HBO's sketch comedy series Mr. Show and for his role as Tobias Fünke in the Fox sitcom Arrested Development.
Cross starred in The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret, had main roles in the Comedy Central animated sitcom Freak Show and the Fox sitcom Running Wilde and currently has a recurring role in the ABC sitcom Modern Family.
Cross was born in Atlanta, Georgia, the son of Susi and a father who immigrated from Leeds, England. Six months after his birth, Cross's family moved to Florida. After additional moves to New York and Connecticut, the family settled back in Roswell, Georgia, where Cross remained for nearly a decade. His family was poor and his father left the family when Cross was ten years old, and Cross and his father have not spoken since he was 19, though they both primarily resided in New York City until Cross sold his home there in 2011. Cross and his family were evicted from their home while living in Georgia. He spent some time living in motels and at friends' homes while growing up. He has two sisters, and once bailed his youngest sibling out of jail.

Genres: Horror, Short,I've gotta talk to you
But I'm so sick of words, words, words
My little cloudy sky
The sun is slipping through your hands
My little everything
You know I want to stay with you
I can't undo these knots
I don't know what to say to you
Hey, hey little girl
Crazy, lovely, lost
Hey, hey, where you going now?
Crazy, lovely, lost
The East, the East is gone
It went to look for Cherokee
We walked down 34th
And I remember your rope hair
My little aching star
Whisper to me across the sky
Said hey, hey little girl
Crazy, lovely, lost
Hey, hey, where you going?
Crazy, lovely, lost, lost
Spirals of you and me crash and collide
Will you whisper to me across the sky?
Yeah should I try to set you free?
Maybe I should just let you be
So lay it on me, lay it on me now
Yeah, lay it on, lay it on me now
Said hey, hey little girl
Crazy, lovely, lost
Hey, hey little girl
Crazy, lovely, lost
Hey, hey, where you going?
Crazy, lovely, lost, lost
