Actress

de Carly Simon

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
