Hollywood Lyrics

I was feeling jolly good near Hollywood
but now I'm crashing hard
playing fast and loose
with a tight-knit noose
when I let down my guard

and just one false move
and just one critical mistake
I'm on the mend
just one loose bolt
and I fell flat

and I've been here for ninety hours
in these concrete towers
and I can't catch a break
it must've been a dozen times
before I realized
the (pig) was on the _____

and just one false move
and just one pivotal mistake
I'm on the mend
just one loose bolt
and I fell flat

I should have taken off to New Orleans
a cocktail waitress on my arm
you know, I hate it here
paralyzed with fear
the slow-to-hear alarms
and it's hard to sleep when the shit is ankle-deep
but I still dream
and then I find a way
it's not as bad as it might seem
