Hollywood |
| She’s a dream, she’s a dream |
| Getting caught up in the scene |
| Like a used car bought off of Mr Vaseline |
| She’s a queen, she’s a queen |
| Getting' played like a machine |
| And all the men pretend that they respect her when they leave |
| Hollywood |
| There’s a man, there’s a man |
| At least I think that he’s a man |
| He’s struttin' down the street with a diamond on his hand |
| Here’s the band, hear the band |
| They’re the hottest in the land |
| Just keeping up their contract for whatever’s in demand |
| Hollywood |
| Socialite, socialite |
| Got a fancy appetite |
| And a hundred dollar habit that she goes to every night |
| But tonight, yes tonight |
| Tonight she’ll do it right |
| When they find her dead, she won’t be able to deny it |
| Hollywood |
| Sometimes I get so God Damned sick of these charades |
| This town is so opaque, I swear the bums are wearing shades |
| But I know that I’d be lying if I said it ain’t a thrill |
| Don’t say I didn’t warn you when the Devil brings the bill |
| Movie star, movie star in a tiny little car |
| Doing 90 on the 10 coming home from the bar |
| Big cigar, big cigar |
| And a smoking little car |
| He ran right off the road he didn’t make it very far |
| Hollywood |
| See the Freak, See The Freak |
| He’s the flavor of the week |
| The ratings all went up when they discovered he could speak |
| So let him speak, yes hear him speak |
| 'his tone is so unique' |
| But by the time commercial hits, you know his fame has reached its peak |
| Hollywood |
| Now it doesn’t really matter what I do or what I say |
| There’s a millionaire buying every hour of the day |
| If you want to see some change you got to change it from the street |
| Change it with your hands, change it with your feet |
| Advertise, advertise |
| Slick and super size |
| Buy the car, find true love, and a dozen other lies |
| Surprise, oh surprise |
| Its what everybody buys |
| A fairytale fantasy, a demon in disguise |
| Hollywood |
| Molly would if she could |
| But she’s stuck in Nebraska |
| I had a truck and so I asked her where she longed to be |
| 'I dunno, you tell me… life looks better on TV' |
| I said, 'You might as well |
| Be living in a plastic factory! |
| Hollywood |
