You're a Star Lyrics

No matter how loud we yelled

At the screen we knew she wouldn't — survive the scene

And who would have guessed that her short bloody dress would get auctioned

And who's that fashioning a cross

In the corner while the extras — waltz to stir the slaughter

Shouldn't somebody tell them that we're all just victims here, ohh yeah

Ahh — the horror

Ahh — the holy and the dumb

You're a star now, baby

Smile for everyone

Under all that gold she wears

She's canvas thick with makeup — the seraph of the war

The violence and envy we stash behind each noble gesture

And who's that man in a mask

Walking slowly out of rhythm — a shrouded refugee

Shouldn't somebody tell him that we're all just victims here, ohh yeah

Ahh — the horror

Ahh — the holy and the dumb

You're a star now, baby

Smile for everyone
