Lyrics Billy Squier

Billy Squier

Hollywood

Heaven, everything you wanted

You know what you came for

Tell me what you got right now

Ain't it funny, they all come for money

From Maine to Arizona

And a star out on the Walk of Fame

Do you like it, go and shout it

Play it harder, never doubt it

Now in a world of constant change

Nothin' stays the same

They'll run you outa here, that's Hollywood

And though you think you'll never change

You're not quite the same

It all seems so sincere, in Hollywood

Winnin', winnin' makes you over

The glory days roll by you

You're leavin' all the clouds behind

And the losers don't have much to offer

But they can drag you under

As fast as you can draw the line

And though you're really not to blame

You fall into your fame

The flames are oh so near, in Hollywood

And when you think you know their game

Somethin' quite so strange

No one knows you're here, in Hollywood

So you're dancin' on the dotted line

They got you workin' workin' overtime

It's a shame, shame, shame

You can't fight it, don't deny it

You can't hide it

The way you do the things you do

They say that some things never change

The plot remains the same

No one wins out here, in Hollywood

And though you think you're not to blame

You fall into your fame

Flames are oh so near, in Hollywood

And with the real world out of range

Can you make the change

And walk on outa here, that's Hollywood
