| David Bowie – Cracked Actor Lyrics
| 11 years ago

I think it's about a faded big-name star who's laying a male prostitute who's a wannabe actor: the line "You made a bad connection cause I just want your sex" implies that the partner thought he'd get more than cash out of the deal - maybe a break with the old star's agent? The agent Henry Willson (among others) was notorious for demanding sexual favours from his proteges and turning them into beefcake stars with awful fake names - at least Rock Hudson did better than the Tabs, Troys, Clints and Guys he mentored! |

There's a Picasso picture of a minotaur with a bride and dead mare. Syd would have known it, as an art student. I think there's a clue in the name Maisie, (Maze-ey) as well. |

It's not 'all the fives crock henrietta' it's 'All the guys GROK Henrietta' which is a Robert Heinlein reference. And the mean go getter is from "mean Mr Mustard" by the Beatles, which refers to 'Pam' who here is 'Pamela'. You Grok? |
