Michael Ball - Sunset Boulevard lyrics



Sure, I came out here

To make my name

Wanted my pool, my dose of fame

Wanted my parking space at warners.

But, after a year

A one-room hell

A murphy bed

A rancid smell

Wallpaper peeling at the corners

Sunset boulevard

Twisting boulevard

Secretive and rich, a little scary.

Sunset boulevard

Tempting boulevard

Waiting there to swallow the unwary.

Dreams are not enough

To win a war

Out here theyre always keeping score

Beneath the tan, the battle rages.

Smile a rented smile

Fill someones glass

Kiss someones wife

Kiss someones ass

We do whatever pays the wages.

Sunset boulevard

Headline boulevard

Getting here is only the beginning.

Sunset boulevard

Jackpot boulevard

Once youve won you have to go on winning.

You think Ive sold out?

Dead right Ive sold out.

I just keep waiting

For the right offer:

Comfortable quarters,

Regular rations,

24-hour five-star room service.

And if Im honest

I like the lady

I cant help being

Touched by her folly.

Im treading water,

Taking her money,

Watching her sunset...

Well, Im a writer.

L.a.s changed a lot

Over the years

Since those brave gold rush pioneers

Came in their creaky covered wagons.

Far as they could go

End of the line,

Their dreams were yours

Their dreams were mine

But in those dreams

Were hidden dragons.

Sunset boulevard

Frenzied boulevard

Swamped with every kind of false emotion.

Sunset boulevard

Brutal boulevard

Just like you, well wind up in the ocean.

She was sinking fast

I threw a rope

Now I have suites

And she has hope

It seemed an elegant solution.

One day this must end,

It isnt real

Still Ill enjoy

A hearty meal

Before tomorrows execution.

Sunset boulevard

Ruthless boulevard

Destination for the stony-hearted.

Sunset boulevard

Lethal boulevard

Everyones forgotten how they started

Here on sunset boulevard!
