Why do you keep all your stars in from your studio on Melrose Avenue?
|
You have locked all your assets up in life-long contracts to you
|
Didn't you know that old Hollywood is over?
|
|
Oh, can't you see all the good that celebrity can do for those in the dark?
|
Yes of course, I am speaking in metaphors for something more in your heart
|
Didn't you know that old Hollywood is over?
|
|
So why not just release the gates and let them all come out?
|
Remember that without them there would be no Paramount
|
No Paramount need to hold on to what isn't yours
|
Release the stars
|
|
The more that you fight, then the more they will scrutinize and realize just your size
|
And believe me, you are no match for a public that has seen the whites of your eyes
|
Didn't you know that old Hollywood is over?
|
Old Hollywood is over
|
|
So why don't you just release the gates and let them all come out?
|
Remember that without them there would be no Paramount
|
No Paramount need to hold on to what isn't yours
|
Release the stars
|
|
Release the stars
|
Release your love
|
Release the stars
|
Release your love
|
'Cause Hollywood is over
|
Why do you keep all your stars in from your studio on Melrose Avenue?
