(After starring in film serials for so many years, Pearl White found feature stories too tame for her taste, and is once more a to-be-continued star.)
^*m here with a smoking revolver, surrounded by corpses galore, • A-kidding the movie-producer I've not done a murder before.
The villain is nursing a fracture, and cursing aloud with the pain, But I'm calm and cool, I feel nobody's fool, I I'm back to the serial again !
Back to the serial again, people ! Back to the serial again ; J^ Murders and fights keep me happy o' nights — I'm back to the serial again !
I've played in Society features, and pictures that dealt with the West, I soon got fed up with their tameness, the week-by-week story is best. The story where everything happens, where folks in their hundreds are slain. To help them to die is the real reason why I'm back to the serial again !
They think I am new to the business — a green little photoplay girl
And so they are busy preparing the film persecution of Pearl.
They'll throw me to sharks in the ocean, or under the wheels of a train,"
But I'll be on the bill as the girl they can't kill
Now I'm back to the serial again !
Back to the serial again, people,
Back to the serial again ; >
Poison in tea is a health-drink to me —
I'm back to the serial again.
I waltzed right away to the villain, and said to him, "None of your jaw;
You can't feed me arsenic-candy, I've been in a movie before.
The poison you put in my scent-spray won't cause me a moment of pain ;
And that bomb in my bed is just right for my head.
I'm back to the serial again ! "
