[Verse 1]
She said I felt like a vampire in that sleepy town
There's only three roads and no, no way to get out
Dreams don’t hide the factory smoke
They'll tell you you're crazy and call you a joke
Oh, but what do they know?
They don’t know what's in your soul

[Pre-Chorus]
And she parks up on Mulholland Drive
And looks out over the LA sky and starts to cry

[Chorus]
In Hollywood, the stars all wanna shine
But they get lost somewhere in the city lights
Everybody's fighting for a taste of that champagne high
In Hollywood, you find out who you are
You take your number, stand in line and you play your part
Higher than high, if there's anywhere you could fly
Yeah, you could in Hollywood

[Verse 2]
Desperation up and down the boulevard
Homeless queens walking in between billion dollar cars
Everyday she goes to auditions
With fiery dreams and wishing well wishes
And the roulette wheel just keeps on spinning
Round and round and round and round
[Chorus]
In Hollywood, the stars all wanna shine
But they get lost somewhere in the city lights
Everybody's fighting for a taste of that champagne high
In Hollywood, you find out who you are
You take your number, stand in line and you play your part
Higher than high, if there's anywhere you could fly
Yeah, you could in Hollywood

[Bridge]
Yeah, you'd sell your soul
Everything you own
For just one shot, one shot, one shot, yeah

[Chorus]
In Hollywood, the stars all wanna shine
But they get lost somewhere in the city lights
Everybody's fighting for a taste of that champagne high
In Hollywood, you find out who you are
You take your number, stand in line and you play your part
Higher than high, if there’s anywhere you could fly
Yeah, you could in Hollywood
(Oh, woah, oh woah) Hollywood
(Oh, woah, oh woah)
