Then we'll see

This city is a monument to bad taste in vain
(Hooray for Hollywood break, out the search lights above)
But I couldn't tear myself away, so I can't complain
(Send out the substitutes, tonight we'll be makin' love)
Crawling in deaf and dumb for the losers ball
(Here's to the house on the hill and the thrill of it all)
Sinking in a tidal wave of alcohol

How could I miss it's come to this Hollywood final scene, make it clean
And if the lights should freeze oh please don't make it him or me
Then we'll see

Look out below this heart will blow Hollywood style tonight
It don't seem right
