letra de the actress - joe iconis

[katrina]
she was an actress
she had some talent with a lyric
but her passion for the craft was unique

she had potential
her approach was part satiric
with an honest, weird, yet sweet, yet goofy streak
her prospects felt a little bleak

so she enrolled in a class where they told her she was really just too rough
she performed with heart and brains but that was simply not enough
her package didn’t fit into a mold
she’d work when she was fifty, she was told

she fought hеr instincts
made herself a bit morе edible
tried hard to not be classified as strange
scored an audition
some new director, super credible
he didn’t ask her name, just her age
she could sense her formal training and her natural impulse start to melt
“i think it’s worth a shot” is what she told herself she felt
and for the first time she attempted to belt

she sang loud and high and impressively
she sang loud and high and impressively
and she felt fake and weak and progressively
off base

still, she sang loud and high and impressively
she carried on so sleek and aggressively
oh so loud and high and impressively
yeah you should’ve heard the cheering in the place
the actress belted her face off
which meant that she no longer had a face

her skin was in mushy of blood of in the middle of the floor
she tried to clean it up, the director said “leave it
you don’t need that face no more”

she was ushered off to a costume fitting
won an obie the next day
it’s amazing how quick things can move when unique’s not in the way
no, unique’s not in the way

she has no eyes now
so it’s hard for her to see that this world she’s living in is her thing
she’s got an unpaid intern working for a theatre arts degree
who drags her all around the benefits to sing
and now she’s climbing
she don’t miss characteristics that once distinguished her from all her peers
there’s no more passion
she just sees it as logistics, sing an f and all the audience cheers
that’s the sh-t that keeps them coming back for years

she sang loud and high and impressively
she sang loud and high and impressively
and she’s got fans who shield so possessively
and praise

by singing loud and high and impressively
never weird or real, just aggressively
oh so loud and high and impressively
a million dollar mouth without a face

[family]
sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing

[katrina / family]
oh / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
oh / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
oh / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
oh / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
oh / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
yeah / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
yeah / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
yeah / sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
sing b-tch, fierce b-tch, sing
then comes the day when
she’s to headline her first show
she’s ready for her fortune and fame
then she’s replaced by jenna elfman

who the b&t crowd know
see the star, don’t need a mouth
just needs a name

and now the actress isn’t anymore like anybody else
she’s tainted goods and armor ch-nked and through
her stratospheric rise and fall is nothing new

in her apartment
she’s fumbling and she’s grasping
all the glory and the interns have all gone

she trips on her obie
now she’s on the floor and gasping
her neck is broken and she just screams on and on

“somebody help”
she just keeps crying on and on and on and on and
she’ll scream and loud and high and impressively

[family]
scream b-tch, fierce b-tch, scream

[katrina]
she’ll scream and loud and high and impressively

[family]
scream b-tch, fierce b-tch, scream

[katrina]
that she always sang so excessively
there at her place

see, she was usually screaming anyway
so her yelling didn’t cause dismay
no one checked on her for at least a day
and when they finally did the sight they saw was truly a disgrace

a dry and red
contorted, dead
mouth without a face

here’s the moral of the story
said the neighbors from the downstairs
if all you do is just scream loud and high
when you die n0body cares
