[​of Montreal - The Actor's Opprobrium lyrics]

I guess I should have known to stay away
From a snuff film by Gene Genet
But the cash was good and the
Director gave me the biggest scene
What does it mean when Pentacostal born again
Virgins appear picketing in angry protest?
Oh those sloppy tarts have sulpherized hearts

Sure a dead man quietly pulling on his
Tongue in a coffin after being hung
Does make strange erotic cinema but that
Was the great master's vision
And the actors agree to portray the fiend
Is best in a death fantasy
'cause when one is licking the knife
Ah well that is truly the life
Oh, what does it mean when the
Stagehand approaches wheeling in a guillotine
Let's play nice yes I want to be a star
But that's going too far

Yes I'm still smarting from the bite
Of coital sessions in gelatal light
I'm questioning my chosen career
Don't think I'll be attending the premier
