Working hard for two million a movie
Four months later I'm finished shooting
I have my own clothes line, perfume, even candy
anything with my face on it so you'll slip me another twenty
Critics say this is the best one yet
only my double did most of it
I get an Oscar ...I just toss it
My face is stuck in one place so the thanks
is kind of hard to get across
I sign my John Doe so I can get some new clothes
and don't forget the surgery
I give to charity and then tell everybody
so I will be all over TV
I had my newborn baby and every magazine wants to see
Only ten thousand for each picture what ever happened
to generosity
Remembering lines to my interviews
and every freak'n movie
Dressing up, looking pretty...
Why is life so hard for me

Heh... this was very entertaining. Thank you for picking a daring and creative lie!
Your description of this fake life was very believable. I thought you described it very well. You clearly channeled your opposite.
Good luck finding your coffee. :-P Thanks for the entry!
