	Story Behind the Song What advice would an ex-star give to today's youth? Well, this song might be a fairly good guess. Written from the viewpoint of a deceased Marilyn Monroe, Silver Screen is a plea for today's generation of fame seekers to change the focus of their lives and instead strive for something more meaningful. Lyrics Little boys and girls My face flashes before you. Little boys and girls My voice rises from a plastic throat. Biographical stations praise my reign of an age, And you sit and dream of doing the same. Perfection cost a lot. And I worked so hard to be happy. I built this camelot. Dead I am as soon you will be. How now will this silver screen protect me? Little toys and bills Save my face and spend my heart. Little laughter and thrills Gifted me with foolish thoughts. You could call me a queen Promoting rubish for my wicked king. Perfection cost a lot. And I worked so hard to be happy. I built this camelot. Dead I am as soon you will be, How now will this silver screen protect me? Oh, to replace my rotting words! Urging you to pursue your own dreams. I have found one thing... Selfishness is worthlessness, Selfishness is hopelessness. Perfection cost a lot. And I worked so hard to be happy. I built this camelot. Dead I am as soon you will be, How now will this silver screen protect me? Dead I am, how now will you protect me?
