She could've been a star
Bright lights upon the silver screen
She knows she had it made
She was seen in every magazine
But then the curtain fell down and the lights went out
And when the smoke cleared she was left without
She had to be someone that she'd never seen
Gimme more of the pain, pain killer
More of the pain, pain killer, more
She's trying hard to forget
Cut-away to town where her agent's trying to close a deal
Scandal in the press now the boy will have to cool his heels
And now the money's run out and the scene is changed
And she woke up it was rearranged
She had to be someone that she'd never seen
Gimme more of the pain, pain killer
More of the pain, pain killer, more
She's trying hard to forget
And now the money's run out and the scene is changed
And when she woke up it was rearranged
She had to be someone that she'd never seen
Gimme more of the pain, pain killer
More of the pain, pain killer, more
She's trying' hard to forget
She's trying' hard to forget
She's trying' hard to forget
