I never dreamed about being an actor, because that was out of reach. Coming from a small town that was big in farming, and also big in clothing factories, you don't dream about being a professional football player or an actor.

When I was 13 years old, a professional theater company in my town needed a kid actor. I auditioned, and I got the part, so for just a few weeks I became a member of the company and I met some professional actors.

Professional Jealousy
Professional jealousy, can bring down a nation
And personal invasion, can ruin a man
Not even his family, will understand whats happening
The price that hes paying, or even the pain
Professional jealousy, started a rumour
And then it extended, to be more abuse
What started out as just, black propaganda
Was one day seen to be, believed as truth
They say the truth is, stranger than fiction
But a lie is more, deadly than sin
It can make a man very, bitter and angry
When he thinks that theres someone, is going to win
Professional jealousy makes other people crazy
When they think youve got something that, they dont have
What they dont understand is its, just not easy
To cover it all, and, stand where you stand
Professional jealousy, makes no exception
It can happen to anyone, at any time
The only requirement is, knowing whats needed
And then delivering, whats needed on time
The only requirement is to, know what is needed
In doing the best you know how, deliver on time
The only requirement is, to know what is needed
Be best at delivering the, product on time.

Highschool
Friends, foes
Boyfriends and girlfriends
Getting new clothes
And homework that never ends.
Teachers that seem to hate you
And doesn't want you to suceed.
I know I'll get through
All I need to do is easily breath.
Highschool is filled with silly nicknames
Like thin chin.
It's also filled with football games,
Always wanting to know who will win.
Highschool brings you stress,
Trying to get good grades.
But my mom always says try your best
In all your ways.

An actor is an actor is an actor. The less personality an actor has off stage the better. A blank canvas on which to draw the characters he plays.

Highschool Confidential
Shes a cool blonde scheming bitch
She makes my body twitch
Walking down the corridor
You can hear her stilettos click
I want her so much I feel sick
The girl cant help it, she really cant help it now
Its like a highschool, highschool confidential
Teenage brandos stalk her in the halls
They tease her with cat calls
Shes a combination anita eckberg, mamie van doren
Dagmar highschool confidential
Whats the principal doin with her whos that girl
Is she screwing with her
Whats her perfume: tigress by faberg
She makes me cream my jeans
When shes coming my way
She drives a candy pink cadillac
If I dont get her soon, Ill have a heart attack
When she flashes me a look I wanna burn my books
Givinup, givinup, givinup high-high-high..

Actor Of Love
Hold on
I have found something I longing for
To fill the hollowness of my heart
But why I'm feeling more of sorrow
Before
I am the one who said: 'Oh, I'll control'
But now I realize you are my world
And it's waiting to break apart
I'm an actor of love
I'm trying to perfect
But I'm just fooling around
I'm an actor of love
I want to be your hero
But I've made myself a clown
I'm an actor of love
I need you by my side
But now you leave me alone
I'm an actor of love
I beg your forgiveness
But you refuse me so cold
Sometimes
We wonder why we should be together
Do we really dream of love forever?
Or we afraid to be alone
I'm an actor of love
I want to protect you
But I always hurt you bad
I'm an actor of love
I want to be your shield
But may turn someone you hate
I'm an actor of love
We kiss in the morning
But in night we have a war
I'm an actor of love
We care for each other
But we only circle round
If this love only makes me crazy
Take the story and just let it be
Tragedy or comedy
Or anything it wants to be

Beauty School Dropout
Your storys sad to tell a teenage neer-do-well
Most mixed up non-delinquent on the block
Your futures so unclear now, whats left of your career now
Cant even get a trade-in on your smile
Beauty school drop-out, no graduation day for you
Beauty school drop-out, missed your midterms and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have taken time to wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough to have the doctor fix your nose up
Baby get moving (better get moving), why keep your feeble hopes alive
What are you proving (what are you proving)?
Youve got the dream, but not the drive
If you go for your diploma, you could join a steno pool
Turn in your teasin comb and go back to highschool
Beauty school drop-out, hangin around the corner store
Beauty school drop-out, its about time you knew the score
Well they couldnt teach you anything, you think youre such a looker
But no customer would go to you, unless she was a hooker
Baby dont sweat it (dont sweat it), youre not cut out to hold the job
Better forget it (forget it), who wants their hair done by a slob
Now your bangs are curled, your lashes twirled, and still the world is cruel
Wipe off that angel face and go back to highschool
Baby dont blow it, dont put my good advice to shame
Baby you know it, even dear abbys say the same
Now Ive called the shot, get off the pot, I really gotta fly
Gotta be goin to that maltshop in the sky
Beauty school drop-out, go back to highschool
Beauty school drop-out, go back to highschool
Beauty school drop-out, go back to highschool
