Derrival - Hollywood

[Verse 1]
They came to be starlets; They ended up in drive-ins
With a hope and a dream
All the gangsters and harlots
Hung up in the bar with
Better things to do

It’s a business of greed
A well-oiled machine
But not a credit on the screen
All the fame and money
Just like a lottery
You’re never gonna win
[Chorus]
Hollywood
Neon signs and flashing lights
I can see them in the distance
Hollywood
Will/It’ll swallow you whole
Your ambitions and goals
In a dumpster behind the studio
Everyone in this town has been there
Can’t get yourself down I’ve been there

[Verse 2]
Marilyn and Audrey
Cross paths in the lobby
The queens of the golden age
Sex and fashion
Always romancing
We just want a taste

It’s a business of greed
A well-oiled machine
But not a credit on the screen
All the fame and money
Just like a lottery
You’re never gonna win
[Chorus]
Hollywood
Neon signs and flashing lights
I can see them in the distance
Hollywood
Will/It’ll swallow you whole
Your ambitions and goals
In a dumpster behind the studio
Everyone in this town has been there
Can’t get yourself down I’ve been there
