| [00:18.56] |
Sure, I came out here |
| [00:20.11] |
To make my name |
| [00:21.38] |
Wanted my pool, my dose of fame |
| [00:23.35] |
Wanted my parking space at warners. |
| [00:27.07] |
But, after a year |
| [00:28.72] |
A one-room hell |
| [00:29.76] |
A murphy bed |
| [00:30.92] |
A rancid smell |
| [00:32.14] |
Wallpaper peeling at the corners |
| [00:35.43] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [00:37.81] |
Twisting boulevard |
| [00:39.99] |
Secretive and rich, a little scary. |
| [00:43.88] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [00:46.12] |
Tempting boulevard |
| [00:48.29] |
Waiting there to swallow the unwary. |
| [00:52.48] |
Dreams are not enough |
| [00:54.36] |
To win a war |
| [00:55.38] |
Out here they're always keeping score |
| [00:57.38] |
Beneath the tan, the battle rages. |
| [01:00.95] |
Smile a rented smile |
| [01:02.74] |
Fill someones glass |
| [01:03.88] |
Kiss someones wife |
| [01:04.80] |
Kiss someones ass |
| [01:05.96] |
We do whatever pays the wages. |
| [01:09.36] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [01:11.62] |
Headline boulevard |
| [01:13.69] |
Getting here is only the beginning. |
| [01:17.72] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [01:19.88] |
Jackpot boulevard |
| [01:22.06] |
Once you've won you have to go on winning. |
| [01:26.39] |
You think I've sold out? |
| [01:27.70] |
Dead right I've sold out. |
| [01:28.75] |
I just keep waiting for the right offer: |
| [01:30.82] |
Comfortable quarters, |
| [01:32.08] |
Regular rations, |
| [01:32.94] |
24-hour five-star room service. |
| [01:36.06] |
And if Im honest |
| [01:37.08] |
I like the lady |
| [01:38.08] |
I can't help being |
| [01:38.91] |
Touched by her folly. |
| [01:39.98] |
I'm treading water, |
| [01:41.16] |
Taking her money, |
| [01:41.96] |
Watching her sunset... |
| [01:44.41] |
Well, Im a writer. |
| [01:46.17] |
L.a.s changed a lot over the years |
| [01:48.70] |
Since those brave gold rush pioneers |
| [01:50.72] |
Came in their creaky covered wagons. |
| [01:54.28] |
Far as they could go |
| [01:56.00] |
End of the line, |
| [01:57.04] |
Their dreams were yours |
| [01:58.14] |
Their dreams were mine |
| [01:59.27] |
But in those dreams |
| [02:01.14] |
Were hidden dragons. |
| [02:02.49] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:04.94] |
Frenzied boulevard |
| [02:07.11] |
Swamped with every kind of false emotion. |
| [02:10.91] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:13.20] |
Brutal boulevard |
| [02:15.69] |
Just like you, well wind up in the ocean. |
| [02:19.44] |
She was sinking fast |
| [02:21.28] |
I threw a rope |
| [02:22.29] |
Now I have suites |
| [02:23.69] |
And she has hope |
| [02:24.64] |
It seemed an elegant solution. |
| [02:28.03] |
One day this must end, |
| [02:29.90] |
It isn't real |
| [02:30.68] |
Still I'll enjoy a hearty meal before tomorrows execution. |
| [02:36.33] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:38.56] |
Ruthless boulevard |
| [02:40.78] |
Destination for the stony-hearted. |
| [02:44.72] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:46.82] |
Lethal boulevard |
| [02:49.09] |
Everyones forgotten how they started |
| [02:53.09] |
Here on sunset boulevard! |
