I need a name
A place in the game
A way to sustain
My stake in the frame
Then Hollywood
You come callin
Oh, fickle fate
Will it happen too late?
With the morning sun
Will I be done, or in Hollywood?
And she starts bawlin
Im talkin bout the weatherman
With his golden tan
Has a master plan
Hes talkin bout Hollywood
Hollywood promises
Now I live in the hills
On whiskey and pills
And inside my head
I vanquish the dead
And Hollywood
Shes rewardin
Well Im riding the wave
Yes, and rock and roll saves
And right to the top
And down Ill drop
And Hollywood
You come crawlin
Talkin bout the actor man
Who needs a chance
But hes cleaning vans
Im talkin bout hooker bars
And the crazy cars
Searchin for the stars
Im talkin bout Hollywood
Hollywood promises
Hollywood promises is it a dream?
Hollywood promises, another crazy
Hollywood promises is it a dream?
Hollywood promises, another crazy
Star star star
Youre a star star star
Youre a star star star
Youre a star!
Am I inside a trap?
Just a star on the map?
Am I failin in my dreams?
Torn apart at the seams
In Hollywood
And shes still callin
Talkin bout
The screamin fans
Holdin out their hands
Its all empty man
Im talkin bout the city fools
And the swimming pools
Get the crazy blues
Im talkin bout the studio head
Telling me Im dead
Get out of Babylon, yeah
Talkin bout Hollywood
Hollywood promises
