Out of work actress
Down, out and unwed
He took her to his cabin
And fed you up on absence
Little Black Dahlia
Little Black Dahlia
So for your last role
The last of a picture show
Cut into pieces
Switched that smile across your face

You shine from newspaper page
Last encore from the grave
Little Black Dahlia
Little Black Dahlia
Cut
Cut
