Canvas in the Wind (with apologies to Elton John)

Goodbye Anna Nichole
Though I never knew watched you at all
You had the grace to publicize yourself
Built a career on talk that’s small

They posted you on TV
And they shouted out your fame
They set you on the talk show
And they made you speak your brain

(chorus)
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a canvas in the wind
Never knowing what man to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
Before the glamour, glitz and surgery
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Superstardom was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created that superstar
While your observations on life were lame
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
CNN has talked on you non-stop
Selling millions in ads built on your fame

Goodbye Anna Nichole
From the young man who didn’t watch your show
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just Madonna’s foe

(chorus)
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a canvas in the wind
Never knowing what producer to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
Before the glamour, glitz and surgery
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
