lyrics
Euro Skank
You came to town with big dreams of getting discovered,
And ended up getting stuck on some plastic couch.
Business is cruel, but I can tell by your smile that you're learning,
And all those girls are fighting over the roles you turned down.
So learn your lines 'til the light hits your face,
And make believe that you believe them,(believe them)
And add it up to the price that you pay,
How much does it cost to be wanted?
Its nine o'clock and you can't take that call from your mama.
The contract states that you'll be back on your back in an hour.
Your body's sore, but it sure beats those days on the corner.
When you were clawing your way to the top of that Sunset Tower.
So learn your lines 'til the lights hit your frame,
And make believe that you believe them,(believe them)
And add it up to the price that you pay,
How much does it cost to be wanted?
Euro Skank you may never be a star,
But you look so good when you crash your car, honey.
Euro Skank you may never be a star,
But you look so good when you crash your car.
The bus arrives with another train wreck in the making.
The search for talent keeps the pace in this tinsel town.
So learn your lines 'til the light hits your face,
And make believe that you believe them,(believe them)
And add it up to the price that you pay,
How much does it cost to be wanted?
Euro Skank you may never be a star,
But you look so good when you crash your car, honey.
Euro Skank you may never be a star,
But you look so good when you crash your car.
