The Actor's Opprobrium

I guess I should have known to stay away

From a snuff film by

Jean Genet

But the cash was good and the director gave me the biggest scene

What does it mean when

Pentacostal born again virgins appear picketing in angry protest?

Oh those sloppy tarts have sulpherized hearts

Sure a dead man quietly pulling on his tongue in a coffin after being hung

Does make strange erotic cinema but that was the great master's vision

And the actors agree to portray the fiend is best in a death fantasy 'cause when one is licking the knife, ah well that is truly the life oh what does it mean when the stagehand approaches wheeling in a guillotine let's play nice yes

I want to be a star but that's going too far yes

I'm still smarting from the bite of coital sessions in gelatal light

I'm questioning my chosen career don't think

I'll be attending the premier
