Description You've got the right moves
and everyone knows who you are.
You're a girl with hips that swagger,
alcohol flowing down your throat.

Oh, so exposed!
Those perfect clothes
and, heaven knows,
how many hearts
you'll claim.

You're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
everyone knows your name.

Fame and fortune are accessories,
toys you tuck in your bag,
as the boys purse their lips
to get a kiss...

but you're too good for them.

And so it goes;
your renown grows
and, I suppose,
it's all just
one big game.

You're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
everyone loves you all the same.

And I will be there
when you fall.
This masquerade,
it's miserable.

When you're exposed
and you've lost it all,
I will be there...

to say, "I told you so."

You're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
everyone knows your name.

You're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
you're a starlet now,
everyone loves you all the same.

You've got the world
in your pocket,
you're floating
on air,
dreams detached,
you're just blurring the line again.

I knows! I just changed it! Cause I thought there was an option for "song" before you got the type, but I just looked at yours and changed it. You beat me to it!

And yea! This was on the frontpage for a little while! But now your other poem took that spot.

This was great fun writing, that's for sure.
