hollywood hopeful

i am a full fledged

grown-up adult

i'm tryin' make a dent

tryin' to get a result

i'm hold up in a hollywood hotel suite

tequila to drink and avocado to eat

they got all kinds of victories and lots of downfalls

they got drugs in the rugs and ghosts in the walls

starlets in the lobby that can make a man drool

blood on the curtains and a phone by the pool

well

i never did see so many tv stars

and i never did see so many rented cars

i never did see so many desperate eyes

and i never did hear so many bold faced lies

when i was ten years old

i was alive

and the benedict canyon down on hutton drive

well

now i'm right back in my old backyward

and i'm tryin' to get a billboard on the boulevard

i'm tryin' to get a billboard on the boulevard

well

i never thought i'd see the age of twenty-five

and it's been twenty-eight years now that i've been alive

and in a matter of months i will be thirty years old

and the apprehension that i feel can hardly be told

i am a full fledged

grown-up adult

i'm tryin' make a dent

tryin' to get a result

i'm hold up in a hollywood hotel suite

tequila to drink and avocado to eat

tequila to drink and avocado to eat
