Hollywood Sign

That’s the way it works at Hollywood sign
You can get yours and I can get mine
Gonna be a star gonna let it shine
I’ll take my chances at the Hollywood sign

Well I went downtown to Hollywood and Vine
Saw a little girlie there she’s looking so fine
Say hey there honey can me and you
Get together for some lovin like the love birds do

She said well mister you got it all wrong
Cause I’m a swinging little diva just singing my song
Gonna make it to the top if I have to climb
All the way from the bottom of the Hollywood sign

Well I says my little darling that’s all well and good
You got your focus and your talent and I’m sure you would
Have ‘em rocking in the aisles and keeping steady time
But you’ll never get halfway up that Hollywood sign

Cause it’s not about talent and it’s not about looks
It’s not even something youi can read about in books.
It’s dead blind luck for the fortunate kind
Who make it to the top of the Hollywood sign

So you might as well love me before you have to go
Rehearse your new songs for your TV show
Someday your songs will be heard the world round
But we can love each other ‘til your luck turns around

She said well mister when you put it that way
I can almost believe this thing that you say
Chalk it up to fortune or to dead blind luck
So let’s go back to your place and…

That’s the way it works at Hollywood sign
You can get yours and I can get mine
Gonna be a star gonna let it shine
I’ll take my chances at the Hollywood sign
