Lyrics Dead Famous - The Inklings

Quiet on set...
Action!

She looked into the mirror
And didn't like what looked back
She tried to make a smile now
But her face began to crack

She was the star of the silver screen
Many years ago
Now she wants to get it back
Since she has grown so old

She cannot believe they don't love her anymore
Now she's gonna cut the face that they all adored

All the Kings, they courted her
She broke a thousand hearts
Now she's getting ready
She's gonna make a fresh start

She wants you all to love her
Like you did before
But will we ever remember
The star who wanted more?

She cannot believe they don't love her anymore
Now she's gonna cut the face that they all adored

Now she's in the theatre
No greasepaint smell this time
She looks at her own face now
And tries to read the lines

She only wanted to be loved again
Not left out in the cold
Her heart just could not take it
She's 81 years old

She cannot believe they don't love her anymore
Now she's gonna cut the face that they all adored

Dead famous, dead famous
Until the very end
Dead famous, dead famous
In the spotlight once again
