Shelley Winters

A song about an actress I knew once.

LYRICS:

I knew her when she was already old
And kept assistants around her
She wore an air of faded fame
Like a cloak of glamor around her
Shelley Winters Shelley Winters Shelley Winters

Everybody thought she was already dead
And wouldn't believe that I knew her
She'd died already in so many films
That there was something fatal to her
Shelley Winters Shelley Winters Shelley Winters

She clutched my arm on Sunset and Vine
And leaned her weight against me
She limped and sighed and groaned when she walked
She carried herself immensely
Shelley Winters Shelley Winters Shelley Winters

Once I week I see her in films
And Shelley Winters always dies in it
I wonder why Hollywood liked to kill her off
But it wouldn't be the same if they didn't
Shelley Winters Shelley Winters Shelley Winters
