He's on his way

He's goin' to Hollywood

He's bussin' it to Hollywood

Show him the way

He's movin' to Hollywood

He's hoppin' it to Hollywood



(where you goin' child?)

(where you goin' now)



He's waited at bus stops all his life

He's been in and out of those spaces

Seein' eyes that spoke to him

From sad and gifted places

Sad and gifted places



He's on his way

He's goin' to Hollywood

He's bussin' it to Hollywood

Show him the way

He's movin' to Hollywood

He's hoppin' it to Hollywood

He's gonna find some brand new thrills

Whatever he's been looking for

Tell him that there's so much more

In Hollywood, Hollywood



He's on his way

He's goin' to Hollywood

He's bussin' it to Hollywood

Show him the way

He's movin' to Hollywood

He's hoppin' it to Hollywood



(where you goin' now)

(what'cha doin' child?)

(where you goin' yeah)



Painted faces, sunburnt skin

Fixed expressions, smiles worn thin

Caught in the blink of neon of Hollywood

Bending battles, maneuvering schemes

False expressions, washed up dreams

Everybody makes believe

In Hollywood, Hollywood



(oh child what'cha doin'?)

(what'cha doin' now?)

(what'cha been' doin'?)
