[Verse 1]
I cast you as the starring role
And Hollywood is taking its toll on me
You could get swallowed up and lost forever
So, you keep a large supply
Of your headshots around, yeah

[Chorus]
Sunset Boulevard will lay with you
So now, California sun will light it
And in the night that little spark
Will find its way inside the bar
Hollywood is waiting
Yes, it's waiting to explode

[Verse 2]
These days you could get married
To a millionaire, or better yet
Become one for yourself on that work TV
If it's true love, well, it won't affect the ratings
Microsoft and your favorite station's
Merged in one big company

[Chorus]
Sunset Boulevard will lay with you
So now, California sun will light it
And in the night that little spark
Will find its way inside the bar
Hollywood is waiting
Yes, it's waiting to explode
Everyone is waiting
Yes, it's waiting to explode
To explode
Hollywood is waiting
Yes, it's waiting to explode
Hollywood is waiting
Yes, it's waiting to explode
Hollywood is waiting
Yes, it's waiting to explode
To explode again
