"It seemed like the world around me was truly becoming grim" - Marilyn Monroe
Mezcal shot with a rattlesnake kick,
Route 66 in a brand new whip,
Just got back from a peyote trip,
Changed the mood in the room,
With the light of a wick,
Her eyes smiled with the style,
of a Hollywood starlet,
Her lips screamed desire,
In a candy apple scarlet,
All the heads in the room,
Turn to your arrival,
Cameras flash as you dash,
and they rush to see their idol,
Champagne flows and egos are stroked,
Gonna be huge, you all should be stoked,
Always the last to be in on the joke,
Superstar with very strong opinions,
You play the part and people love their villains,
They want you to bite but not inject your venom,
Fire your weapon and say "You're Welcome",
Her eyes smiled with the style,
of a Hollywood starlet,
Her lips screamed desire,
In a candy apple scarlet,
All the heads in the room,
Turn to your arrival,
Cameras flash as you dash,
and they rush to see their idol,
Champagne flows and egos are stroked,
Gonna be huge you all should be stoked,
Always the last to be in on the joke,
They always tell you what you want to hear...
Now watch as I turn and disappear,
Let me make it perfectly clear,
Now watch as I turn and disappear,
All the heads in the room,
Turn to your arrival,
The cameras flash as you dash,
and they rush to see their idol,
Champagne flows and egos are stroked,
Gonna be huge you all should be stoked,
Always the last to be in on the joke,
They always tell you what you want to hear...
