Drama Queen
She wanted a big production wedding,
badgered her fiancee into going along
with the bad idea
Get the marriage started off wrong
Money that needed to be saved, not squandered
on some reality TV thrill
She was used to getting her way,
had the right chemistry skill set to maudlinly operate
Mix insincere tears with theatrical screams;
shake the anger beaker and her gaseous speech start bubbling,
gasping for air ... ready to explode
Fake fainting and pitiful groveling:
She’s the best supporting actress at causing a scene
Don’t get her started, she’s a drama queen
The day before the rock star nuptials,
she’s not feeling good about the Bridezilla dress
Says it makes her look like a garage bargain mess —
gives her a mannequin big waist, small chest
and a bottom flatter than a desk
This thespian woman got other mad skills too
that she can bring
Skull Island drama queen,
who can Judy Garland sultry siren sing,
and get Baby Jane King Kong mean
Bugged out on the unpolished chandeliers
and the late arriving catering
It’s bringing out the worst side of the drama queen,
and everybody knows:
She’s the best supporting actress at causing a scene
But her girlfriend is the best actress in the hood,
a genuine, Hollywood Hall of Fame drama queen —
She can delivery every kind
of emotional line
with perfect timing
