I was walking down the street early this morning
|
Past the graveyard, voices coming to me.
|
I was walking down the street, early this morning
|
And the silver drops of rain hung from the trees
|
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! I 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.
|
Well he wasn't abused, he wasn't confused,
|
He had nothing to gain and less to lose
|
|
Still in Hollywood,
|
Oh WOW! I 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
|
|
So it's three A.M., I'm out walking again.
|
I'm just a spot on the sidewalk in the city of sin.
|
He doesn't give a fuck, he's living under a truck.
|
You know it coulda been me, i guess it's just my luck.
|
But I swear I hear the sidewalk talking to me -
|
Keep on, keep on, keep on.
|
|
Still in Hollywood...
