Movie Star Boy - lyrics

I'm prolific ha!  I think it's the heat wave and a specific type of "sun high", which I love...the lazy hazy crazy days of summer.  A song I wrote today - a true story.  I've thought about this boy...where did he go?  These lyrics are influenced by my some of my favorite musicians, Pink Floyd being way up there.  I think the style is all my own - see if you think a song is in here, in the lines.  Happy Birthday Rick Wright, way up there.

As always, no one try to take these lyrics as I will find you with a little help from the Neptune Pink Floyd  forum, thanks.

Movie Star Boy

Movie star boy, movie star boy
Where is the joy?
Out in your yard
Your black and white dog
Standing on guard.

This is your life
Your common-law wife
Is laughing outside
Your daughter turned one
I know you  tried
Movie star boy.

Last summer you sang
With friends at the shore
You had a guitar
Your skin was so tanned
I walked past, you smiled
Angel faced child
Movie star boy, movie star boy.

And now you stand wearing jeans
In your rented yard
Your shiny black hair
Your face worn with care
Should be on the big screen
Should really be seen
So young and ignored
Restless and bored.

Why don’t you just run
To Hollywood town?
This girl brought you down
Your daughter will know
Just send them the dough
I live down the street
I can’t understand
Movie star boy, movie star boy
Why can’t you see
What it means to be free?
