Axed Actor

Out of work actress

And fed you up on absence

Little Black Dahlia
Little Black Dahlia

So for your last role
The last of a picture show

Switched that smile across your face

You're still famous in this age
You shine from newspaper page
Last encore from the grave

Little Black Dahlia
Little Black Dahlia
