• Sunset Boulevard

Joe Sure, I came out here to make my name Wanted
my pool, my dose of fame Wanted my parking space at Warners' 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
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 just keep 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 treading water, taking the money Watching her sunset....well,
I'm a writer L.A.'s changed a lot over the years Since those brave gold
rush 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 stony-hearted
Sunset Boulevard, lethal Boulevard Everyone's forgotten how they started
Here on Sunset Boulevard
