Will Rogers

In Hollywood you can see things at night that are fast enough to be in the Olympics in the day time.

Hollywood

All night long
Hollywood
All night long
Youre saddle sore
And on the grind
Just pushed you a little bit more
Dont mind if I do
Its hollywood
Hot damn - hands in a jam
Never say cant
cause you know you can
In hollywood
Dont be mesmerized
What goes on here
Aint no surprise
As long as youll be cool
In hollywood
Oh, wee set the pace
Fill your nose
Despite your face
Theyll make you babylon
In hollywood
Now you see it
Now you dont
Someones gonna take it away
Now you see it
Now you wont
Every dog has its day
Oh wee I got the cools
A brand new car
And the family jewels
And they wont stop me now
In hollywood
Oh wee boogedy shoe
Got myself a new hairdo
Im makin it somehow
In hollywood
Now you see it
Now you dont
Someones gonna take it away
Now you see it

Every dog has its day
All night long

Hollywood
In time theyll build you up
And then theyll bring you down
Hollywood
Youre a dream machine
Some day theyll burn the king for sellin out
Chew you up and spit you out
Just like heaven when things are good
But there aint no hell like
Hollywood
Would you guess
What its all about
You may be a lady
But Ill knock you out
Wrap my knuckles upside your head
Make you take back
Every damn thing you said
You play with me
Gonna pay the price
No ghost of a chance
Im holdin the dice
You lie about this and
Lie about that
Dont wanna hear
Nothing about no more crap
Now you see it
Now you dont
Someones gonna take it away
Now you see it
Now you wont
Every dog has its day
All night long
Hollywood
All night long

The Olympics are coming... and it's a big problem in American politics, because the problem with holding the Olympics this fall is that we're all going to be focused on the Olympics, and it makes that window of opportunity for Gore to win the election that much smaller.

Hollywood Liar

Liar, liar, liar, hollywood liar,
Who are you, to crash my party, with your mediocre blues,
Your powder has no power over me,
Dont talk to my friends, the way you talk to the girls from the valley,
Youre just another liar to me,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
I can see right through your act, the way you lie to yourself,
About deals you know dont even exist,
Dropping all those names the way you think the game should be played,
Youre just another liar to me,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
(say) too mon to mon toul le jomey le very tey,
Too par too par, cullear, reason,
Unfortunately youre my neighbour,
But certainly not for long,
Huh, Im the writer of this,
Im the printer of that,
What you gonna do next?
How you gonna top that?
Distributor of this,
Editor of that,
What you gonna do next?
How you gonna top that?
How you gonna top that?
How you gonna top that?
(? )
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood,
Hollywood,
Hollywood,
Hollywood liar,
Kiss me?
(? )
Hollywood liar,
Hollywood liar,
I dont buy it baby!
You just get out of my party!

Hollywood Ending

Did you want it this way
Breaking us down a little at a time
Is it easier now that Im not around
Is it time to draw the line
Well, we dont have to pretend
That its a hollywood ending
Leave it to me
To act like a fool begging you to come back
When I had you I had everything
And now all I have is this photograph
Theres nothing here to defend
Its not a hollywood ending
You dont have to go
No, you dont have to go
You couldve been the star of
My show anytime
No, you dont have to go the trouble with you
The trouble with me
We aint meant to be
Well, we dont have to pretend
That its a hollywood ending
Another hollywood ending
Its not as bad as it seems
A hollywood ending
Its hard to give up your dreams
Another hollywood ending
All that glitters will fade
A hollywood ending
Just like the promise you made
Another hollywood ending
Did you want it this way

Things Get FUNKY Fast

try to keep it shiny,
try to make it last,
every time you turn around,
things get funky fast.

try for law and order,
the die is cast
every time you turn around,
things get funky fast.

no matter how you figure,
no matter how big the blast,
bowling pins built to fall down,
and things get funky fast.

toil and trouble,
hang on what we do,
and bloodhounds,
coming after you.

the present moment,
ruled by the past,
every time you turn around,
things get funky fast.

you know I love you, baby
twine time is fine,
but I can't tell,
if you're a friend of mine.

on the deck of the ship
you're climbing up the mast,
it's hard to be hip,
things get funky fast.

Reelin In The Years

Your everlasting summer
You can see it fading fast
So you grab a piece of something
That you think is gonna last
You wouldnt know a diamond
If you held it in your hand
The things you think are precious
I cant understand
Chorus:
Are you reelin in the years
Stowin away the time
Are you gatherin up the tears
Have you had enough of mine
You been tellin me youre a genius
Since you were seventeen
In all the time Ive known you
I still dont know what you mean
The weekend at the college
Didnt turn out like you planned
The things that pass for knowledge
I cant understand
Chorus
I spend a lot of money
And I spent a lot of time
The trip we made in hollywood
Is etched upon my mind
After all the things weve done and seen
You find another man
The things you think are useless
I cant understand
Chorus

Wild Things Run Fast

He came
She smiled
She thought she had him tamed
But he was just as wild
Eating from her hand at last
Wild things run fast
In the dark
He could see
The trap that was lying in her
Sweet company
Eating from her hand at last
Wild things run fast
Winter beat the pines about
He heard the heater
Cutting in and out
While she dreamed away . . .
In the night
It snowed
Fast tracks in the powder white
Leading out to the road
Winding from her tender grasp
Wild things run fast
Wild things run fast
Wild things run fast
What makes you run?
Wild thing
I thought you loved me

Hollywood Movie Girls

(g. heideman)
Today I went out on a movie call
I saw a million nervous faces
I knew them all
Hollywood movie girls
Were all wearing our one good interview dress
The one showin our legs
Aah, were lookin our best
Now, who will be chosen for the screen test?
Its your guess
Hollywood movie girls
And each and every potential star
Drives home in the night in her economy car
Whoever thought home would be a one-room flat?
Well, as simple as that
Hollywood movie girls
Each morning up early to call on the phone
Agents, producers, oh, theyre never at home
Like door-to-door salesmen, we are selling ourselves
Ooh, nothing else
Hollywood movie girls
And each and every potential star
Drives home in the night in her economy car
Whoever thought home would be a one-room flat?
Well, as simple as that
Hollywood movie girls
And just about bedtime each one of us asks
Tell me, when will I make it to the big-time at last?
Oh, small parts youre offered
Aah, but those too shall pass
Nothing lasts
Hollywood movie girls
Yeah, and each and every potential star
Drives home in the night in her economy car
Whoever thought home would be a one-room flat?
Well, as simple as that
Hollywood movie girls
Oh, star light, star bright, wont you wish on me tonight?
Wish I may, wish I might
Shine your light for me

Los Angeles

City of glam, city of crime
People are fake, you're no friend of mine
Club fights, dancing through the night
We're kids living the dream under the lights

We're in Los Angeles
Dancing through the night in Los Angeles
Hollywood trash in Los Angeles
Being ourselves in Los Angeles
Never losing Los Angeles

City of High, city of low
Selling drugs, we're losing our souls
Walking the strip with one goal
We're gonna live our dream, no one can stop us all

We're in Los Angeles
Dancing through the night in Los Angeles
Hollywood trash in Los Angeles
Being ourselves in Los Angeles
Never losing Los Angeles

Girls in my world
Music in my ears
Pain in my tears
Rock in my veins
Nothing in my brain
I think i'm going insane
That's all i need in Los Angeles


We're in Los Angeles
Dancing through the night in Los Angeles
Hollywood trash in Los Angeles
Being ourselves in Los Angeles
Never losing Los Angeles


We're in Los Angeles
Dancing through the night in Los Angeles
Hollywood trash in Los Angeles
Being ourselves in Los Angeles
Never losing Los Angeles

Hillbilly Hollywood

I can still remember my first guitar
Bright and shiny like a brand new car
Even took it with me when I went to school
And I practiced every day till I got real good
I learned every lick on the radio
From wabash cannon to go johnny go
I majored in rhythm with a minor in blues
Then I hit the road with my blue suede shoes
And I dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
Hillbilly hollywood
I played some bars where you never wanna go
From oklahoma city down to tupelo
My ears would be ringing like an old fire bell
When Id lay me down in some cheap hotel
And I dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
Hillbilly hollywood
And I pray before too long
They will hear my song
And I dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
I dreamed grand old opry on a saturday night standing . .
Hillbilly hollywood hillbilly hollywood hillbilly hollywood

Life vs Time

The greatest enemy of life is time
Time always gets in the way
No matter how much we try to avoid
It follows you around

When we laugh
When we're happy
When we're innocent
Time goes by so fast

When we're depressed
When we're blue
When we're not right
Time goes so slow

No matter how much we pray for time to go fast when we're sad
It goes slower than the three toe sloth

But life can't live without time
Time doesn't exit without life
Because there's time
Everybody tires to do things in a hurry
Thinking that time will go by fast.

Hollywood

All american boy with big dreams of glamour life
Bright lights and boogie nights
The hype is everything could be yours if the price is right
Grab your nothing and hold it tight
The first chance you get your heading out to the west
This decision is one you wont regret
Move to the place where everybody knows ya
Like hollywood, los angeles, california
Chorus:
So you wanna be a superstar
Welcome to hollywood
Quick money, fly women, fast cars
Welcome to hollywood
So you wanna be a superstar
Welcome to hollywood
High times, big dreams, living large
Welcome to hollywood
One way ticket, then youll live this
Life of a superstar caught up in this business
God as my witness, you will never change
Only been here a day, already in the game
You changed your name; you dont eve look the same
Now youre on top of the world
Money, power, and fame
Picture perfect, just like you planned
No longer him, cause you the man
Chorus
Youll never get the best of me
The time ticks away, youve had your play
Sold your soul for the roll, now you gots to pay
Forfeit integrity, overnight celebrity
Settle for selfish gain rather than dignity
Another sucka, why did you trust a playa like me fool,
Eternal hustler
Im taking everything and now you know
I hate to tell you but, I told you so

On The Lie

He burnt down the house one night
He had a loaded sixpack gun
He said that jesus christ was just like a cop
You know you never know when they'll come
She said every day above ground
Was another dream come true
He said I'd hang and swap cliches all night
But I'm not in love with you

And I never got serious
Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back

On the lie

He said man you want to be Elvis
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you've got to die facing up in the world
Cause there's too many holes around
He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a hollywood girl
I said that hollywood can fall into the ocean

A Long December

A long December and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin'
Now the days go by so fast

And it's one more day up in the canyons
And it's one more night in Hollywood
If you think that I could be forgiven...I wish you would

The smell of hospitals in winter
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters
