Lyrics for Sunset Boulevard by Various Artists:
| | | Artist: | Various Artists |
| | Album: | Sunset Blvd. Cd 2 | | Track: | Sunset Boulevard | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 273 | | | | Lyrics: | Joe:sure, I came out here
To make my name
Wanted my pool, my dose of fame
Wanted my
parking space at Warner's.
But, after a year
A one-room hell
A Murphy bed
A rancid smell
Wallpaper peeling at the corners
Sunset Boulevard
Twisting
boulevard
Secretive and rich, a little scary.
Sunset Boulevard
Tempting
boulevard
Waiting there to swallow the unwary.
Dreams are not enough
To win a
war
Out here they're always keeping score
Beneath the tan the battle
rages.
Smile a rented smile
Fill someone's glass
Kiss someone's wife
Kiss
someone's ass
We do whatever pays the wages.
Sunset Boulevard
Headline
boulevard
Getting here is only the beginning
Sunset boulevard
Jackpot
boulevard
Once you've won you have to go on winning
You think I've sold
out
Dead right I've sold out
I've just been waiting
For the right
offer.
Comfortable quarters,
Regular rations,
24-hour
Five-star room
service.
And if I'm honest
I like the lady
I can't help being
Touched by
her folly
I'm trading water,
Taking her money
Watching her sunset
Well, I'm a
writer
L.A.'s changed a lot
Over the years
Since those brave goldrush
pioneers
Came in their creaky covered wagons
Far as they could go
End of the
line.
Their dreams were yours,
Their dreams were mine
But in those dreams
Were
hidden dragons.
Sunset Boulevard
Frenzied boulevard
Swamped with every kind of
false emotion.
Sunset Boulevard
Brutal boulevard
Just like you we'll wind up in
the ocean.
She was sinking fast
I threw a rope
Now I have suits
And she
has hope
It seemed an elegant solution
One day this must end,
It isn't
real,
Still, I'll enjoy
A hearty meal
Before tomorrow's execution.
Sunset
Boulevard
Ruthless boulevard
Destination for the stonyhearted.
Sunset
Boulevard
Lethal boulevard
Everyone's forgotten how they started
Here on Sunset
Boulevard | | | |
