Lyrics
Drops of golden sunset drip
And the golden sunset children skip
Along the path that's called the strip
And they're looking for a bird to flip
And a hole to hide from the tourist eyes a-watching
Touring cars come into town
And the black policeman's cars are down
Inspecting all the players 'round
The places where the joker's found
And waiting for his chance to be the dealer
Welcome to Hollywood
You Midwestern sons and daughters
Oh, welcome to Hollywood
Say, man, can you spare a quarter?
This that I so calmly heard
Astounded by the city shirt
That comes so quickly off the lay
The golden sunset children fled
With ways to still be young and not be crying
The network shows its color war
I watched a short-haired hero star
Drip crimson on green army car
In his last scene, it's too bizarre
To think that he won't get a check from AFTRA
Welcome to Hollywood
You Midwestern sons and daughters
Oh, welcome to Hollywood
Say, man, can you spare a quarter?
I feel the wood in Hollywood
I know where the new Hollywood
Hollywood, Hollywood
Hollywood, Hollywood
Hollywood, Hollywood
Hollywood, I'm talking about Hollywood
Oh, I'm feeling fine
Hollywood, I'm talking about Hollywood
There I go
Hollywood, and we're talking about Hollywood
It's so nice to be in Hollywood
