Baby′s feeling so alive
Followed her dreams to Hollywood and Vine
She's silver
He′s got the devil in his smile
Got the casting couch and a couple lines
She's flying
Now she remembers all her lines
It's gonna be just this time
She′ll be golden
But then ten years go by
She′s nearly thirty-five
I hope it was worth it


Ain't nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal
It′s just business, yeah
Ain't nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal

Bobby's feeling so alive
Got the Brando look and a Leo smile
He′s perfect
He′s getting the fuck out of Dodge
Got friends out there in Hollywood
He's already gone
But there′s a million just like him
His ship ain't coming in
Sound familiar?
Now he′s on Santa Monica Boulevard
He's a different kind of star
I hope it was worth it

Ain′t nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal
It′s just business, yeah
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal


He used to sing your favorite song
You knew the words and you'd sing along
What was his name?
You were gonna be just like him
Ten feet tall, a superman
What happened?
He met the needle and spoon
He sings a different tune
It′s over
Now you're suburbia′s king
You can't remember his name

Ain't nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal
It's just business, yeah
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal

Ain't nothing personal (Oh no, no)
Ain′t nothing personal (Oh no, no)
Ain't nothing personal
It's just business, yeah (Just business)
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain′t nothing personal (Oh no, no)
Ain't nothing personal

Ain′t nothing personal (Oh no, no)
Ain't nothing personal (Oh no, no)
Ain′t nothing personal
It's just business, yeah (Just business)
Ain′t nothing personal
Ain't nothing personal (Oh no, no)
Ain't nothing personal
