Bad Actress

(album: All Part Of The Experience - 2021)

You spin so good in your fresh Madeira linens
Only finer things for the sunshine princess
Sweet summer skin in the chlorine fumes
I fund her addiction and the Collagen blues
She tells me she loves me pressed to my neck
But every other song 'bout a pretty boy who left
Why so dramatic baby?
I'm a hard man to love, she's always misbehaving

She's an actress and a bad one
All we ever do is lie to each other
All the parties, the wrecked Bugattis
Never gonna get our happy ever after
Beautiful, beautiful pretenders
Can we stay ignorant together?
Black Dahlia, my Black Dahlia

I wanna travel everywhere on earth with you
Wanna fall in and out of the rhythm and blues
Get lost in the jazz bars, racing the old cars
I could make you famous if you asked me to
I wanna travel everywhere on earth with you
Wanna fall in and out of the rhythm and blues
Get lost in the jazz bars, racing the old cars
I wanna burn down this home in Malibu

She's an actress and a bad one
All we ever do is lie to each other
All the parties, the wrecked Bugattis
Never gonna get our happy ever after
Beautiful, beautiful pretenders
Can we stay ignorant together?
Black Dahlia, my Black Dahlia

Chasing the Hollywood high
Posing for the cameras
Smile nice and wide

She's an actress and a bad one
All we ever do is lie to each other
All the parties, the wrecked Bugattis
Maybe this could be our ever after
Beautiful, beautiful pretenders
Can we stay ignorant together?
Black Dahlia, my Black Dahlia
