Hollywood Songtext
von Thin Lizzy

They say people out in Hollywood
Live their lives in black and white
They live in a technicolor dream
And stay in a star overnight
It′s not like in New York
Man, it's tougher
Not like in London town
Boy, you suffer

Nobody give a break
When you′re down on your luck
Everybody's all it takes
When you're down on your luck
You can′t make a mistake
When you′re down on your luck


People out in Hollywood
They got a lot of class
See the boys struttin' down the boulevard
Kick ass
It′s not like in New York
It's high rises, concrete complex
It′s not like in London town
It rains down on its effects

Nobody give a damn
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands
When you′re down on your luck
Lady Chance, she won't dance
When you're down on your luck

People out in Hollywood
They can make it to the stars
They can use the screen
Drive around in big expensive big double cars
It′s not like in New York
All you got is Broadway
Not like the West End in London
You should make it out no way


Nobody give a damn
When you′re down on your luck
Everybody's all it takes
When you′re down on your luck
You can't make a mistake
When you′re down on your luck

Nobody give a damn
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands
When you′re down on your luck
Lady Chance, she won't dance
When you're down on your luck

Everybody′s all it takes
When you′re down on your luck
You can't take it easy, that ain′t good enough
When you're down on your luck
I′m ready for a dance
When you're down on your luck
Gotta strut your stuff
When you′re down on your luck
Nobody understands my whole sound
When you're down on your luck
I'm ready for a dance
When you′re down on your luck
