Beloved Movie Star Redux lyrics

My beloved movie star
There`s more than cold cream in your jar
When eyebrows arch and lips are dry
When you`re alone at night, you cry

Stuntmen make you feel secure
Wrap you up in soft allure
Your key light`s bright, your close-up`s now
This picture could tank, but you`ll make out somehow


Manhattan calls
Ignore Hong Kong
Directors ring
But you stand strong
Drink champagne
And celebrate
The critics call
And they think you`re great


My beloved movie star
I have watched you from afar
So confident and glamorous
Yeah you make it look so easy to us


Your agent calls, it`s not your week
It`s a younger one that now they seek
You are the part, why don`t they know
Remember Tallulah, Janet, and Garbo


Behind you now
See someone there
She looks like you
With blonder hair
A newer one
With a younger glow
So you just cry all night
In your bungalow


My beloved movie star
Now I know just where you are
Up on a hill, in the backseat of a car
You`re my beloved movie star
