Still In Hollywood
(专辑: Concrete Blonde - 1986)
I
was walking down the
street early this morning Past the
graveyard, voices whisper to me. I
was walking down the
street, early this morning And the
silver tears of rain hung from the
leaves And I
swear I
heard the
voices singing to me... Singing to the
rhythm of the
beat of my feet, I
swear I
heard the
voices singing to me Keep on, keep on, keep on. Still in Hollywood! oh WOW! Thought I'd be out of here by now. Still in Hollywood! My, my I'm running on a
wheel and I
don't know why I
don't know why. And on the
bus today, I
met the
queen of L.A. At least she said she was and who am I
to say? She was sixty-five and full of life, She had purple-painted cheeks And glitter on her eyes And the
troll on the
corner, I
flipped him a
quarter And he looked at me and smiled. He wasn't abused, he wasn't confused, He had nothing to gain and less to lose in Hollywood Oh WOW! Thought I'd be out of here by now. Still in Hollywood! My, my I'm running like a
rat and I
don't know why And so it's three A.M., I'm out walking again. I'm just a
spot on the
sidewalk in a
city of sin. He doesn't give a
fuck, he's living under a
truck. You know it coulda been me, guess it's just my luck. But I
swear I
hear the
voices singing to me Keep on, keep on, keep on. Still in Hollywood...
