Jeffrey Detrick - Starlet Lyrics

Hollywood was a-callin'
You packed your things and came a-runnin'
There's a place for you up there on the silver screen

Is that your agent on the line
Or someone playin' with your mind
Another wannabe lover from the gutter of broken dreams

Starlet, you tried your hardest
I was your sacrifice
You were blinded by the neon lights
Starlet, you played your part the best
I was your biggest fan
But I just can't be your leading man no more

Well I've seen your ups and downs
Dried your tears and hung around
But the casting couch draws cold, cruel company

They found a part with you in mind
A scene where everybody cries
Another big debut ending up on the cutting room floor

Starlet, you tried your hardest
I was your sacrifice
You were blinded by the neon lights
Starlet, you played your part the best
I was your biggest fan
But I just can't be your leading man no more

There's a star on the boulevard
Where the tourist stand and stare
One day you'll be bigger than all the rest
Living out your fantasy without me there

Starlet, you tried your hardest
I was your sacrifice
You were blinded by the neon lights
Starlet, you played your part the best
I was your biggest fan
But I just can't be your leading man no more
No, I just can't be your leading man no more
