Welcome to my city
The girls are so damn pretty
Such a pity, they don't come for free

Just call me pimp daddy
I'll roll ya one big fatty
I think you're gonna like a hangin' with me

*chorus*
Welcome to my city of sin
I believe you're gonna fit right in
Yes this is my city of sin
You're first lesson is about to begin
Now you're living in the city of sin
You don't mind if I call you friend
Once you enter you can never get out of here
Welcome to Hollyweird

I'm the king of the streets
I own the cops, the junkies and freaks
It's a human wasteland I call home

Grow your hair to your shoes
Trust me boy you just can't lose
Soon this be the only life you've ever known

*chorus*
*chorus out*

Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when daddy comes home
He never get no rest

*chorus*
Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night

The kid won't eat
And the dog won't sleep
There's no escape from the music
In the whole damn street

*chorus*

*chorus*
She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out

*chorus*

She goes, squeeze box
Come on and squeeze me
Come on and tease me like you do
I'm so in love with you
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night

*chorus*

*Chorus out*

A small town girl with big time dreams
But nothing's ever as it seems
A mother waves her girl goodbye
Then slowly hangs her head and cries
Hollywood hills and the big city lights
Outside her window they burn bright
Someday the world will praise her fame
They'll know her face they'll shout her name

*pre-chorus*
They'll shout it real loud
She'll make her mama real proud
She'll stand above the crowd

*chorus*
I am someone
Look what I've done
Stare into the sun
I am a shooting star
I am something
I am someone
Look what I've done
I am a shooting star

She looks down at the stars, lying on the streets
Says to herself "that will be me"
A big time dream, a small town mind
Searching for a break, she may never find
Streets of gold, they turned to grey
Just one more chance, just one more day
Someday that world will know this face
She swears they'll never fall from grace

They'll shout it real loud
She'll make her mama real proud
She'll stand above the crowd
And shout

*chorus*

She stands out on the streets in the pouring rain
Strangers walk by they don't know her name
As the silver screen slowly fades to black
She'll never give in, she can never go back

*chorus*

Someday you'll see me
Don't you need me
Everybody will believe me
I am a shooting star

I will stand strong
I will hold on
It's not my last song
I am a shooting star

Came to Hollywood
Gonna be a movie star
She got off the bus
But she didn't get far
Now she can act as good as Meryl Streep
Dreams of stardom when she sleeps
The casting couch just makes her scream
Wasn't like this in her dream

*chorus*
Wishful thinking
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me good!
Wishful thinking yeah yeah
Let's go

Came to Hollywood
Gonna be a big rock star
He can play a million riffs on this here guitar
Now he works two jobs, can't get a break
Takes little white pills to stay awake
No record deals just make him scream
It wasn't like this in his dream

*chorus*
(come on Bobby)
(Yeah, I like that)

Hollywood
Superstars
Rock n' roll Denny's
Topless bars
Do a porno movie, make some extra cash
But you spend it all too fast
Hollywood just make you scream
It wasn't like this in your dream

*chorus*

Dream, wishful thinking
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me good
Wishful thinking yeah yeah
Let's go

Good God what do I see
Pretty little thing just
Looking at me
Ohhhh, ohhhh sexy thing
I say walk that thing
Right over here
Just one thing I've got to make clear
Ohhhh, ohhhh sexy thing

*pre-chorus*
The way you move your body
It's driving me insane
Don't you dare take me there
Then shoot me down in flames

*chorus*
She's just like a loaded gun, I just gottat get me some
Girl's so hot, you know is true
That woman gonna make a man of you

Really ain't no mystery
I want you and you want me
Ohhhh, ohhhh sexy thing
I want your ten toes up and my ten toes down
Two wet bodies going round and round
Ohhhh, ohhhh sexy thing

Now it really ain't no secret, I don't want this night to end
She said don't you worry Bret I brought along a friend

She's like a loaded gun, I just gotta get me some
Girl's so, hot you know is true
That woman gonna make a man of you
She make a dead man come
I gotta get me some

*pre-chorus*

She's just like a loaded gun, I just gotta get me some
Girl's so hot, you know is true
That woman gonna make a man of you
She's just like a loaded gun, I just gotta get me some
She make a dead man come
I gotta get me some

Now that you've been bought and sold
You don't have time to fix the mess you're in
And if I may be so bold I bet you couldn't even do it again

*pre-chorus*
Lying like yesterday's paper just outside the door

*chorus*
Now you need me to clean your shoes
Walk on water be in the mood
Everybody's talking but nobody knows
Where did the emperor get them new clothes

I alwayd did look up to you
Tried to copy everything that you did
Until you broke my heart in two
You shot me up then you flipped your lid

*pre-chorus*

*chorus*

*chorus out*

Mr. Rockett, give me some drums!!

She'll slide you in, you taste the sin
She slowly gets inside your head
You feel her take control and she'll steal your soul
She's the devil lying in your bed
She's the lord of your thighs and it's no surprise
You're playing with loaded gun
She's a killer queen and she'll lick you clean
Then she'll spit you out when she's done

*chorus*
Devil woman, evil woman
She'll make you believe
L.A. woman, she's my woman
Brings out the devil in me

She got blood red lips and head trips
Leave a poor boy beggin' for more
When you get that itch ain't love a bitch
Now you need her just a little more
She's a soul taker, a ball breaker
And boy she's gonna break you
She's gonna steal your heart, steal your money
Laugh at you when she's through

*chorus*

*chorus* (2)
Well the way she'll do you
Things you ain't never seen
She can tear right through you
You can never leave

*chorus* (2)

*chorus out*

Alone on my steel horse I ride
The engine echoes in the night
Through a concrete jungle a wasteland i call home
No fears and no regrets
No apologies for the things I've said
And believe me child it's the life I've known

*chorus*
I will ride on through the night
From this hell I will survive
It's all I've done, it's who I am
Just know this
I've done the best I can

I see fallen angels and broken dreams
I'm still surviving on these streets
Like forgotten soldiers left here to die
All your pain I understand
Give me your love, you take my hand
And from this wasteland we will ride

*chorus* (2)
We will ride on through the night
From this hell we will survive
Give me your faith give me your hand
All I know we've done the best we can

*chorus* (1)

*chorus* (2) out

Got no time to think about good intentions
Got no time to think about indiscretions
Don't want to think about past reflections
Don't want to think about tomorrow

*chorus*
Cuz I'm living in the now, yea
Hold tight, it'll be alright
Cuz I'm living in the now, yea
Hold tight, it'll be alright

A little unsure today
Lock you in a cage
Unkind thing to say
Flies into a rage

*chorus* (2)
Everyday is shorter then the day before
Saving for a rainy day is just a metaphor

*chorus*

It's so easy to offend
When venom is your friend
Wounds can never mend
And you don't try

*chorus* (2)

*chorus*

Now you watch me bleed
Cuz you never did believe me
Only to decieve with just one lie

*chorus* (2)

*chorus* (2) out

My baby said she don't want to see my face
She kicked me right on out of her place
Now I'm back with the band and my girl is long gone
She broke my heart bad so I wrote down this song
I'm about as sad as they come
Yea, I'm stupid, stoned and dumb
I'm a pretty pitiful sight
Lately I can't get myself right
Boys, I can't get this girl out of my head
I just know she's got another man in her bed
They said "Bret, let us give you some advice"
In Hollywood love don't come easy, it comes at a price

*chorus*
So your girlfriend is a dancer, she makes love for money
Used to get it free, we really think you're lucky
Loves a two way street, you got hit by the bus
Don't break your heart or you'll end up like us

So you got dumped
Don't feel ashamed
We got a little something something, gonna ease your pain
So I toke and I snort and I smoke and I sniff
By the way what day is this

*chorus* (2)
You're a natural born loser, don't you understand
That's why you're born to sing in a rock n roll band
Born to feel the pain and write sad songs
With losers like us this is where you belong

*chorus* (2)

The band was making it big, I was making the scene
Drive big cars and make some green
Wrote a big hit, a number one song
But by then, my girl was long gone

*chorus*

*chorus* (2) out

*chorus*
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
(Let's go)
Saturday night Rainbow bar and grill
Where there's Cocaine lines and a little white pill
A beer and a gin, now I can't see straight
Slip it in, no glove, oops too late
I remember her face but forgot her name
She forgot mine too ain't that a shame
Smelled like reefer and my hairs in a mess
I left my love running down her dress

*chorus*

Dave from Drowning Pool is here
Steal's my women and he drinks my beer
Buys me a pizza and a shot of Jim Beam
And as who the fuck is Angeline
I go to piss in the parking lot well
I get in a fight but I don't get caught
Hell no problem cuz the nights still young
I want a little more gonna get ya some

I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
(CC lets go)

Rock stars, movie stars, a Hollywood scene
I eat dinner with Nick Cage and Charlie Sheen
Nick asks me what the hell Unskinny Bop means
It's slang for CC banging a porno queen

Mario, Michael, Tony and Steady
R.V. won't ya get table six ready
My Platinum records hang all around
Rainbow's home when I'm in this town

*chorus* out

*chorus*
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now

You know I never ever thought I would say just how much I love L.A.
Until we got aboard a plane and toured around the world

We went to London, Paris, France and Spain, all it fuckin' did was rain
Bobby went insane and Bret left with a geisha girl

*chorus*

Rikki has so many bags, customs almost beat his ass
They threw me out of first class cuz I said we were the bomb

The tour bus that we had won't go
Got stuck in seven feet of snow
The road crew couldn't get no blow
And the sound man broke his arm

*chorus*

*chorus* out

(Who the hell you guys think you are
Rock Stars or sumthin')

Oh yeah!

Limousines, champagne
Get my clothes custom made
I take handfuls of pills
Trash my house in the hills
Smash up my cars
Just to get me my thrills

I'm rollin' round the world
I'm gonna do me 'bout a million girls
Well I break all their hearts
Bring them down to thier knees
I do what I want
Yeah I do as I please

*chorus*
I want to be a big rock star, yeah
I want to drive a big black car, yeah
All the girls will stroke on my guitar
When I'm a big rock star

Want my face on your wall
Want Cameron Diaz just to give me a call
I've been nobody's fool
Gonna die while I'm cool
I make all the laws
And I break all their rules
Porno star, king of sleaze, dirty movies
(Hey look at these)
Velvet rope, V.I.P.
Hollywood cowboy
Mama look at me

I want to be a big rock star, yeah
I want to drive a big black car, yeah
I'm gonna push it all too far
When I'm a big rock star

(CC do it)

I play for the massess
Sex on the stage
Girls shake their asses
Then come taste the fame
Backstage is my thing
So get in the ring
We do anything
Cuz here I'm the king

I want to be a big rock star, yeah
I want to drive a big black car, yeah
I want to be a big rock star, yeah
I want to drive a big black car, yeah

Who the hell you think you are
