❖

Judging by the way you behave 
I'd think you were a star.
And if true grit won't work
True dough will get you just as far.

Can a dervish stop and spin around
The other way.
Can a dame like you stick with one man
More than just a day?

You're living such a movie
And you're making each moment real.

       -----------

You got bored with your kids
And the old man had to go.
So you fixed yourself to some
Rock star's tour on tow.

Show a tit, throw a fit, steal a scene,
Demonstrate your meagre all.
Throw a pose for the front
As the critique becks and calls.

It's bringing in the money
But are you happy in your new found land?
