Actors' point of view

So you complain with much disdain
That actors have it all?
The ones who bitch that we’re too rich
Those same ones we enthral.
 
Why do you care ‘bout what I wear
And where I like to go?
Shown such concern when people learn
I broke my little toe.
 
I give you not a second thought
When I see you walk by,
But you get hectic, apoplectic,
Even start to cry!
 
You give me praise and say the phrase
’Oh, I’m your biggest fan!
You’re so divine, would you please sign
My shirt, you gorgeous man?'
 
It is so weird that we’re revered
For acting, being fake
Yet we’re the ones enjoying tons
Of money that we make.
 
Those who complain should entertain
Themselves a little more,
But seems to me films and TV
Are what you all live for.
 
It’s not my fault that you exalt
Me much more than you should.
There are good odds that all your gods
Live here in Hollywood.

(2003)

I calls 'em like I sees 'em.
