about

The life of a silver screen starlet.

lyrics

Pump the pomp
suck the circumstance
ride the red
cut up the carpet
with clown couture

so you think you're gonna make a movie
you think you're gonna set the price tag
10 million dollars in the dust bin
kill the genius of a dead man
yoooooooooooou are killing a dream
yoooooooooooou won't make 'em believe

Cut a line
pop the bubbly
throw a toast
smash up the limo
cuz giiiiirl this party's dead

you twist and jerk like Jeannie
ain't no wish gonna fix this
your sashaying harem of sex pots
is waiting to cash in their payday
yoooooooooooooou won't make it a week
yoooooooooooooou'll be kissing the street

Riding the PCH buzzed on THC
extensions flying off in the breeze
the end of the road seems to bend bob and weave
her injuries come, but will she be well for the screen
CUT!

you cry a lot
fog up the windscreen
pitch a fit
till daddy comes through
crazy night tied up with twizzlers
alcohol and pills delivered - on seeeeeeeeet!
she's a screen gem
she's a screen gem

about

Charles Otis Gainesville, Florida

I'm a 58 year old musician, singer and songwriter residing in Gainesville, Florida. I've been at song crafting a very long time. I'm passionate about it. I think that memorable musical pieces can be like a short audio / film or story. I love mixing technology with traditional rock and exotic ethnic instrumentation. You'll find a little bit of everything in what I do.
