Hollywood

Michael Buble · Collection

Could you be a teenage idol

Could you be a movie star

When l turn on my tv

Will you smile and wave at me telling Oparah who you are.

So you want to be a rock star

With blue eyed bunny's in your bed

Well remember when you're rich that you sold yourself for this

you'll be famous cuz you're dead.



Chorus

So don't go higher for desire

Put it in your head

Baby Hollywood is dead you can find it in yourself.



I don't want to take you dancing

When you're dancing with the world

Well You can flash your caviar and your million dollar car

I don't need that kind of girl

but could you be that next sensation or will you set the latest style

You don't need a catchy song

Cuz the kids will sing along

When you shoot it with a smile



Chorus

So don't go higher for desire

Put it in your head

Baby Hollywood is dead you can find it in yourself.



So don't fly higher for your fire

Put it in your head

Baby Hollywood is dead you can find it in yourself.

Keep it on your head Hollywood is dead.



Well you can do the money tango

You can start your little thing

You can swing from vine to vine

While the kiddies wait in line

With the money in their hands

But if you get to California

Save a piece of gold for me

If it's the only thing you save

Then I'll bet you'll never wave when I watch you on tv.



Chorus

So don't go higher for desire

Put it in your head

Baby Hollywood is dead you can find it in yourself.



So don't fly higher for your fire

Put it in your head

Baby Hollywood is dead you can find it in yourself.



Keep on loving what is true and the world will come to you

you can find it in yourself



Love what is true and the world will come to you

you can find it in yourself

No no no no no

Keep it in your head Hollywood is dead

Come come Hollywood is dead babe woo hoo

Oh Hollywood is dead yeah yeah

Keep on loving what is true and the world will come to you

you can find it in yourself

Get it in your head Hollywood is dead
