Tinseltown - Stephen Bishop

He said «no Mom, hold your tears»

You always said I was going to be

Somebody someday

As she wept

He left for Life on Mars

A cheap guitar

In a beat up case

On his way to find first base

In Tinseltown

That’s where he’s going to

Tinseltown

He’s gotta make into Tinseltown

He met a Molotov Cocktail girl

She was tall

He fell in love

On Hollywood and Vine

She starred in something

Called, «Girl on Sofa»

Oh no…

A little money

Meant alot in those days

I dress to excess now

Who names the Hurricanes

That blow through

Tinseltown

Friday at Sunset

In Tinseltown

Alot of people go to Tinseltown

I am a media guy

I have to know

Exactly what is happening

When it’s happening

I am a media guy

I am a media guy

Someday I will President of Hollywood

Tinseltown

Friday at Sunset

See all the people drive to Tinseltown

Live the movie life in Tinseltown

(Let's Give this town a haircut)

Make it safe to shop in Tinseltown

'Cause I was born to shop
