| [00:18.62] |
Sure, I came out here |
| [00:20.62] |
To make my name |
| [00:21.81] |
Wanted my pool, my dose of fame |
| [00:23.68] |
Wanted my parking space at warners. |
| [00:27.43] |
But, after a year |
| [00:28.86] |
A one-room hell |
| [00:30.04] |
A murphy bed |
| [00:31.04] |
A rancid smell |
| [00:32.54] |
Wallpaper peeling at the corners |
| [00:35.91] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [00:38.16] |
Twisting boulevard |
| [00:40.22] |
Secretive and rich, a little scary. |
| [00:44.34] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [00:46.40] |
Tempting boulevard |
| [00:48.46] |
Waiting there to swallow the unwary. |
| [00:52.64] |
Dreams are not enough |
| [00:54.00] |
To win a war |
| [00:55.18] |
Out here theyre always keeping score |
| [00:57.48] |
Beneath the tan, the battle rages. |
| [01:00.98] |
Smile a rented smile |
| [01:02.61] |
Fill someones glass |
| [01:03.85] |
Kiss someones wife |
| [01:04.79] |
Kiss someones ass |
| [01:05.79] |
We do whatever pays the wages. |
| [01:09.53] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [01:11.72] |
Headline boulevard |
| [01:13.71] |
Getting here is only the beginning. |
| [01:17.64] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [01:19.64] |
Jackpot boulevard |
| [01:22.14] |
Once youve won you have to go on winning. |
| [01:24.44] |
|
| [01:26.25] |
You think Ive sold out? |
| [01:27.37] |
Dead right Ive sold out. |
| [01:28.31] |
I just keep waiting |
| [01:29.06] |
For the right offer: |
| [01:30.12] |
Comfortable quarters, |
| [01:30.55] |
Regular rations, |
| [01:31.55] |
|
| [01:32.14] |
24-hour five-star room service. |
| [01:34.70] |
|
| [01:35.47] |
And if Im honest |
| [01:36.41] |
I like the lady |
| [01:37.41] |
I cant help being |
| [01:38.34] |
Touched by her folly. |
| [01:39.09] |
Im treading water, |
| [01:40.58] |
Taking her money, |
| [01:41.46] |
Watching her sunset... |
| [01:42.46] |
|
| [01:43.90] |
Well, Im a writer. |
| [01:45.71] |
L.a.s changed a lot |
| [01:47.15] |
Over the years |
| [01:47.96] |
Since those brave gold rush pioneers |
| [01:50.02] |
Came in their creaky covered wagons. |
| [01:53.82] |
Far as they could go |
| [01:55.32] |
End of the line, |
| [01:56.32] |
Their dreams were yours |
| [01:57.44] |
Their dreams were mine |
| [01:58.38] |
|
| [01:59.07] |
But in those dreams |
| [02:00.00] |
Were hidden dragons. |
| [02:00.50] |
|
| [02:02.29] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:04.28] |
Frenzied boulevard |
| [02:06.71] |
Swamped with every kind of false emotion. |
| [02:10.33] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:12.39] |
Brutal boulevard |
| [02:14.76] |
Just like you, well wind up in the ocean. |
| [02:18.63] |
She was sinking fast |
| [02:20.19] |
I threw a rope |
| [02:21.07] |
Now I have suites |
| [02:22.19] |
And she has hope |
| [02:23.06] |
It seemed an elegant solution. |
| [02:26.81] |
One day this must end, |
| [02:28.30] |
It isnt real |
| [02:29.30] |
Still Ill enjoy |
| [02:30.30] |
A hearty meal |
| [02:31.43] |
Before tomorrows execution. |
| [02:35.26] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:37.19] |
Ruthless boulevard |
| [02:39.50] |
Destination for the stony-hearted. |
| [02:43.18] |
Sunset boulevard |
| [02:45.18] |
Lethal boulevard |
| [02:47.67] |
Everyones forgotten how they started |
| [02:51.11] |
