Hollywood Potters
Verse 1:
Mothers hold on to your sons and you daughters
Should hollywood claim them, youll hold then no more
Cause theyll become claimed to the hollywood potters
And theres no escape once they walk through that door
Chorus:
Hollywood, hollywood dungeon of drama
Center of sorrow, city of schemes
Hollywood, hollywood terrace of trauma
Palace of promises, dealer in dreams
Some, they go hungry and some go insane
Some go to the bottle and some to the vains
Some become users and some become used
And some even make it, but most never do
Repeat chorus
Tag:
You spin them around like a merry-go-round
You mold them and shape them and then throw them down
All of your glitter and all of your gold
Is that what you give in exchange for a soul
Cause they sell their soles for the likes of you
While you chew up and spit out what you cannot use
Repeat verse 1
Repeat chorus

Liar, liar, liar, hollywood liar,

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,

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,

Youre saddle sore
And on the grind
Just pushed you a little bit more
Dont mind if I do

Hot damn - hands in a jam
Never say cant

Dont be mesmerized

Aint no surprise
As long as youll be cool

Oh, wee set the pace
Fill your nose
Despite your face
Theyll make you babylon
In hollywood
Now you see it

Someones gonna take it away

Every dog has its day
Oh wee I got the cools

And the family jewels
And they wont stop me now

Oh wee boogedy shoe
Got myself a new hairdo

In time theyll build you up
And then theyll bring you down

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

Every dog has its day
All night long

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

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

Hollywood, Hollywood, Hollywood
This is the city I love to live in
Where the sky is upside down,
The stars are lying on the sidewalk
And I'm feelings as if I'm flying on the clouds.
This is the city of the colored lights.
The wonderful and happy boulevards
Where the people wall dreaming of
An encounter with their own stars.
Hollywood, Hollywood, Hollywood
The city of unfulfilled fantasy
Where the prettiest girls of the world
Hope to sing a new song,
Hope to perform an original melody.
This is the city of innovated glamour,
The fascinating and enchantable theaters,
The most unforgettable romances.
And the always coveting Oscar Award.
Hollywood, Hollywood, Hollywood
The city of the shining Stare, the city of fulfilled fantasy,
And the city of eternal love.

Biggest Thing
Off the wall the streets you go
The little girl dont find her name
? ? ? down roads to homes
Where everybody find their game
Just behind the street she goes
Shell be found behind her wheel
cause its the only place she knows
That makes her know just how she feels
cause youre biggest thing
That I see
You got me where you want me
You hunt me down you hold me
And beg me to believe
All too fast to where she goes
But wholl be first to find her name
Holding on in hollywood
But holding on dont make the grade
Just about ? ? ? its alright
? ? ? find
This holidays not hollywood
And holidays dont suit my game
Repeat chorus
Holidays and harlem(? ) nights
Where everybody find their way
? ? ? things they write
And makes you wanna find your place

Danger
Had wild dreams
Walkin the streets
Hell, we were young
Never looked back
So we took our dreams
Ran like hell
Lived our youth
From the wishing well
Me and the boys
Made a pact
To live or die
No turning back
Scarred fr life
All my best friends died
I lost my mind
It made me hate
I cant escape, I cant escape
(pre-chorus)
Im a wildcat
A shotgun blast
Madman
Strong as steel
Overkill
No more deals
(chorus)
Danger
Youre in danger
When the boys are around
Danger
Youre in danger
And this is my town
This is hollywood
I was blind
One step from the edge
Spin round and round
Out of my head
Lost in my gin
From riches to sin
Loose again
Ive escaped
Ive escaped
(pre-chorus)
Tatooed lies
Distant eyes
Hollywood
Its been ten long years
Tears and fears

Get away, get away,

Should do all

Dreams of stardom when she sleeps
The casting couch makes her scream
Wasn't like this in her dreams

Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me good

Now he works two jobs can't get a break
Takes little white pills to stay awake
No record deals just make him scream

Hand To Hold On To
You can laugh and joke and make fun of your friends,
Spin in the middle when your troubles begin,
Take it nice and easy and always pretend
That youre cool.........so cool..........so cool.
Say, imunna hold onto that a while and I will and Ill be tame,
Talk like a jerk on an educated brain,
Be an old girl drivin the young boys insane,
Be a joker, a preacher....it does not matter.
Chorus:
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to
Dont need to be no strong hand
Dont need to be no rich hand
Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to
Havin good luck with your financial situation,
Play the ponies, be the president of the united nation,
Go to work and be a hollywood stand,
Drive your 4 wheel drive right into the mud, but
Repeat chorus
And in those hours when youre alone,
And theres nobody there except yourself,
I know it.........you wanna pick up the phone,
And say, talk to me, talk to me, somebody please
Talk to me! yeah!

Ohh, yeah!

A young man from a small town
With a very large imagination
Lay alone in his room with his radio on
Looking for another station
When the static from the mouthpiece
Gave way to the sound below
James dean went out to hollywood
And put his picture in a picture show.

A mocca man in a wigwam sitting on a reservation.
With a big black hole in the belly of his soul
Waiting on an explanation
While the white man sits on his fat can
And takes pictures of the navajo
Every time he clicks his kodak pics
He steals a little bit of soul.
Every time he clicks his kodak pics

Orange and yellow and purple and green
The lights of the city at night set the scene
Stumble through the bars of forget-me-not lane
Sparkle through the glitter but dont show the pain
In hollywood
Underneath a golden palm tree
Hollywood
Come to the party the drinks are on me
For free
Heartbeats echo through a cavern of love
Come to the tavern Ill meet you up above
Soaring through the heavens, what a fabulous ride
But everybodys heading for the same place to hide
In hollywood
Underneath a golden palm tree

Hollywood Squares
Ive always said I do too easy
And now Im payin the price
My weakness for beautiful women
Is my most expensive vice
I still believe in matrimony
But I cant afford another try
Child support and alimony
Is just about to bleed me dry
Chorus:
I got exs all across the country
And I owe everybody in town
I got bill collectors a callin me up
And lawyers tryin to track me down
Im just one wrong move from the poor house
But I dont belong in there
I got so many exs and owe so much
I ought to be on hollywood squares
Yeah, I ought to be on hollywood squares
Lookin back over my love life
I only have myself to blame
I guess I shouldve checked my price tag
Before I gave em my last name
Now my credit ratings in the gutter
And the bottom line sure looks bad
Ill be payin the rest of my life
For the few good times Ive had

Goodbye Hollywood
Born and raised in the windy city
I moved west to kick start a dream
What I found was a town without pity
Thatll chew you up and swallow you clean
Im amazed at the life Im livin
Dont want to seem like Im rockin the boat
But it aint all about taking but giving
I feel something tugging at my coat
No one ever told me it would be like this
That thered be something called home thats too hard to miss
Chorus:
Im saying goodbye to the glamour
Back to the old neighborhood
All that I need is a place that I can breathe
Im saying goodbye to hollywood
Done my time in the hoodoo jungle
Tired of waking up in another mans dream
Ive got the ball and I aint gonna fumble
Gonna make a winner of this team
All that ever mattered were the goals I chased
Now, Im ready to run in the human race
Chorus:
Im saying goodbye to the glamour
Life never tasted so good
All that I need is a place that I can breathe
Im saying goodbye to hollywood
Me and the mrs. done made up our minds
Were gonna give our boys a little less sunshine
Call it runnin say what you like
Ive got my own definition of paradise
Id rather be knee deep in snow than knee deep in jive
I may be cold but my soul is alive
