Every Stupid Actress

I dreamt that I screwed every stupid actress in la

I dreamt that I was holding them and told them it'd be okay

It's not easy being famous anyways

So famous people say

'Cause everyone that you meet just wants to screw you

And you can't complain

And it's a shame, she'd be a queen back in Rhode Island

Now she waits in line with the other sad clichés

And besides, she's really not so sexy and wild

That was just the part she had to play

I dreamt that I saved every stupid actress in la

And every aging waitress who gave it up

And had to change back her name

They floated out of every coke-fueled party

Every over-priced café

But that was just some dream I had

And when I woke up nothing changed

Even though she don't have grace like Greta Garbo

Even though she don't have eyes like Clara Bow

That leather glove could pluck you from the huddled mass tomorrow

And toss you through a gilded puff of smoke

I dreamt that I was every stupid actress in la

I dreamt it that you meant it when you said that

You would come and see my play

You sat there and you watched me

And you thought it was pretty good for a pretty face

And wondered if I had a soul to sell

Would it get bought, or just thrown away?

The statue of infamy, it gazes down in silence

From its perch up there in the Hollywood Hills

Give me your crazy and your desperate and your beautiful, but inspired

I'll give them glamour, give them thrills

And to me there's nothing sad about a dream

She screamed as she swan dove from a pearly-white h

Those nobodies back home, they only dream while they're asleep

Not you and me babe we keep ours through the day
