I look to longevity. I just consider myself an actress and getting good roles. If being a 'superstar' gets me good roles, then that's a positive thing. But my goal isn't just to be a superstar. It's to act for a long time.

It's also a question of finding good material and interesting roles. I'm not the only actress out there, and good parts just don't fall into your lap that easily. But I like most of the films I've made recently and so I'm pretty positive about the future.

Superstar
A little bit of something on a bad-ass day
Can help me please my my mind
Cos a big bit of nothing don't take blues away
It's just like killing time

K-car
Is it just a car
Or is it so much more?
It's a superstar
With the gas to the floor.
Zero to sixty in remarkable time.
It's the automobile that's top of the line.
We got a k car on the road of life.
We're gonna get far if the driver's Christ.
Is it just a car
Or is it so much more?
It's a superstar
With the gas to the floor.
In a drag race all the others fall
And Brandon Ebel just gave us a call.

Lonely Girl (feat. Linda Perry)
verse 1-
I can remember / The very first time I cried /
How I wiped my eyes / And buried the pain inside /
All of my memories / Good and bad that's passed /
Didn't even take the time to realize /
bridge 1-
Staring at the cracks in the walls /
'Cause I'm waiting for it all to come to an end /
Still I curl up right under the bed /
'Cause it's takin' over my head / All over again /
chorus -
Do you even know who you are? /
I'm guess I'm trying to find /
A borrowed dream or a superstar? /
I want to be a star /
Is life good to you, or is it bad? /
I can't tell anymore /
Do you even know what you have? /
verse 2-
Lying awake / Watching the sunlight /
How the birds will sing / As I count the rings around my eyes /
Constantly pushing / The world I know aside /
I don't even feel the pain / I don't even want to try /
bridge 2-
I'm looking for a way to become /
The person that I dreamt up / When I was 16 /
Oh, nothing is ever enough /
Ooh, baby it ain't enough /
For what it may seem /
chorus -
Do you even know who you are? /
I'm still trying to find /
A borrowed dream or a superstar? /
Everybody wants to be /
Is life good to you, or is it bad? /
I can't tell anymore /
Do you even know what you have? /
No /
bridge 3-
Sorry girl / Tell a tale for me /
'Cause I'm wondering / How you really feel /
I'm a lonely girl / I'll tell a tale for you /
'Cause I'm just trying to make /
All my dreams come true /
chorus -
Do you even know who you are? /
Oh yeah, yeah /
A borrowed dream or a superstar? /
Oh, I wanted to be a star /
Is life good to you, or is it bad? /
I can't tell, I can't tell anymore /
Do you even know what you have? /
I guess not, oh, I guess not /
Do you even know who you are? /
Oh, I'm trying to find /
A rising dream, or a falling star? /
Oh, I have all these dreams /
Is life good to you, or is it bad? /
I can't tell anymore /
Do you even know what you have? /
Oh, no, no /
-Fades-
Do you even know who you are? /
A rising dream, or falling star? /
Is life good to you, or is it bad

My Cat
Cool cat
Good cat
Pussy cat
When I see him walking
Makes no sense to me
My cat is everywhere
We watch him on TV
My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar
My cat
Cool cat
My cat is everywhere
Sees what he can see
He may not be an actor
He acts atrociously
My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar
My cat isn't crazy
He's everything to me
My cat burns the bible
And he thinks it's so funny
He isn't very good
He isn't very smart
He may not be Picasso
But he is a work of art
Hates me as much as I hate you
My cat
Cool cat
Good cat
Pussy cat
When I see him walking
Makes no sense to me
My cat is everywhere
We watch him on TV
My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar
My cat isn't crazy
He's everything to me
My cat burns the bible
And he thinks it's so funny
He isn't very good
He isn't very smart
He may not be Picasso
But he is a work of art
My cat is handsome
He can play the guitar
He can break my arm in seven places
He can eat a whole watermelon
My cat my cat

Soap Opera
Do the Devil
And God switch
Roles in becoming
The writer, creator
Director of our roles?
If not,
What pleasure
Does God get
In making us
Enact the roles
Of a Rapist,
Murderer,
Paedophile
In this life's
Soap Opera?
Is HE a sadist
Relishing the agony
Of helpless victims
Or for such roles
Does Devil the
Writer-Creator-Director
Remain the all-powerful
Producer of such a
Hedonistic, Voyeuristic
Masochistic Thriller?

Playing good girls in the 30s was difficult, when the fad was to play bad girls. Actually I think playing bad girls is a bore; I have always had more luck with good girl roles because they require more from an actress.

Actress
Some day I'm going to grow up
And be every man's dream
Some day I'm going to grow up
And forget this sad little me
I'm going to shine in the spotlight
Wear sexy clothes
Be somebody everybody wants to meet
And no one ever really knows
No one will ever know me
I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
Critics will adore me
At least they will at first
But you see I already know this
So it can't never really hurt
And if it does, I'm an actress
I'll play it nonchalant
In the total scheme of things it's insignificant
(sure I can take the knocks)
Cause I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
I may not be that pretty now
But who's the referee
Standards of beauty
Will be redefined because of me
And then they'll be the scandals
Everywhere my name
Men will jump from balconies
And I'll just shrug and take the blame
(yeah, they'll say I died for love)
Cause I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
Well, I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
My acceptance speech will be a milestone
Never will such a star
Have ever graced the microphone
And of course I'll thank my agent
The way they always do
Though I could have done it without him
And that goes for the Academy too
And the makeup people and the lighting designers and everybody else
Cause I'm an actress throughand through
And to my bones
I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
I'm an actress yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll be gracious to the lesser stars
And generous to the unknowns
And if another actress threatens
My position on the throne
Well, I don't know exactly what I'll do
I don't exactly know
But I know that it could turn into
One of my most poignant roles
Everyone will have their handkerchiefs out
And they'll have to leave the theater early
And then they'll go home
And what'll they do?
They'll have a big glass of alcohol
Cause I'm an actress through and through
And to my bones
And if I make it to the top I won't be overthrown
I'm an actress ah, yeah, yeah
