The Auteurs - Starstruck Lyrics

First child
and a showbiz son
Always hide
where you come from
Mother got out rehab
And I was born
I was starstruck
When I was young
It's never too soon
To tread the boards
I was in Vaudeville
At age five
My career took
Its first nosedive
I've been starstruck
all my life

Starstruck,
starstruck over you
Starstruck,
I'm struck dumb by you
Starstruck,
I struck out my luck
I was always starstruck

Can't get an agent
For a child star
My act effete and failing
So I moved
To the old backlot
Where I exercise daily

Starstruck,
starstruck over you
Starstruck,
I'm struck dumb by you
Starstruck,
I struck out my luck
I was always starstruck

Now you're between
A peak time show
I hear you're now married
She was born to be seen
Not to be carried

Starstruck,
starstruck over you
Starstruck,
I'm stuck here with you
Starstruck,
I struck out my luck
I was always...
