I actually had the pleasure of hanging out with Ace and asked him about this song. It was the last time he played at the Max in near Dallas. He told me the songs basically about the time when the music industry was giving TEN crap for not writing their music in a different way. He told me he wrote the chorus first then the second verse. The actors he refers to is the music industry. Basically the song is about, and I quote Ace here, "This is what we are, take it or leave it."
