There are stars on the sidewalks of Hollywood
Footprints and names in cement
The palm trees and moors and the summers
Even your dreams could invent
The sun sets like one dying ember
My, how the time passes slow
And soon you forget to remember
Remember
You think it's heaven, I know
But Hollywood smiles
Like a movie star
Playing the part of a friend
And Hollywood smiles
And you never know
Whether it's real or pretend
Chasing your dream round the bend
They call this the city of angels
A mecca of fortune and fame
The pot at the end of the rainbow
Sure beats the cold
And the rain
And everyone here loves a winner
Man, when you're down, you're alone
So show me some light, just a glimmer
Don't let me die an unknown
Oh, Hollywood smiles
Like a movie star
Playing the part of a friend
And Hollywood smiles
And you never know
Whether it's real or pretend
Chasing your dream round the bend
Oh, Hollywood smiles





Like a movie star
Playing the part of a friend
And Hollywood smiles
And you never know
Whether it's real or pretend
