Queen Of Hollywood Lyrics

She drove a long way through the night

From an urban neighborhood

She left her mother in a fight

For a dream misunderstood

And her friends they talk on corners

They could never comprehend



But there was always something different

In the way she held a stare

And the pictures that she painted

Were of glamour and of flair

And her boyfriend though he loved her

Knew he couldn't quite fulfill

He could never meet her there



She's never gonna be like the one before

She read it in her stars that there's something more

No matter what it takes no matter how she breaks

She'll be the Queen of Hollywood



And the cynics they will wonder

What's the difference with this dream

And the dreams of countless others

All believing in TV

They see their handprints in a sidewalk

Flashing cameras on the scene

And a shining limousine



She's never gonna be like the one before

She read it in her stars that there's something more

No matter what it takes no matter how she breaks

She'll be the Queen of Hollywood

She's believing in a dream

Queen of Hollywood

It's a loaded fantasy



Now her mother collects cut-outs

And the pictures make her smile

But if she saw behind the curtains

It could only make her cry

She's got hand prints on her body

Sad moonbeams in her eyes

Not so innocent a child



She's never gonna be like the one before

She read it in her stars that there's something more

No matter what it takes no matter how she breaks

She'll be the Queen of Hollywood

Queen of Hollywood

No she's never gonna be like the one before

She read it in her stars that there's something more

No matter what it takes and even though she breaks

She'll be the Queen of Hollywood

She's the Queen of Hollywood and

Her friends still talk On Corners

She's the Queen of Hollywood



Fade Out
