The sandy-haired son of Hollywood |
|
Lost his faith in all that's good |
|
Closed the curtain, unplugged the clock |
|
Hung his clothes on the shower rod |
|
But he never got undressed |
|
And no, he never made a mess |
|
It's funny how life turns out |
|
The odds of faith in the face of doubt |
|
Camera One closes in |
|
The soundtrack starts, the scene begins |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
Take a bow, take a bow |
|
The trophy wife from Palisades |
|
Whose yearbook beauty never fades |
|
Sits and watches the sea fold in |
|
And wonders what might have been |
|
If she could ever have the chance |
|
Would she do it all again? |
|
It's funny how life turns out |
|
The odds of faith in the face of doubt |
|
Camera One closes in |
|
The soundtrack starts, the scene begins |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
Take a bow, take a bow |
|
On the corner by his streets |
|
He sits in his lawn chair in the heat |
|
Sightseers see what they want |
|
He's selling star-maps to the sun |
|
The sandy-haired son of Hollywood |
|
Lost his faith in all that's good |
|
Closed the curtain, unplugged the clock |
|
Hung his clothes on the shower rod |
|
But he didn't get undressed |
|
And no, he didn't seem depressed |
|
It's funny how life turns out |
|
The odds of faith in the face of doubt |
|
Camera One closes in |
|
The soundtrack starts, the scene begins |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
You're playing you now |
|
Take a bow, take a bow |
|
Take a bow, take a bow |
