    Story Behind the Song
    I WROTE THIS SONG DURING A SUMMER I SPENT WITH A CLOSE FRIEND WHO LIVED IN SILVER LAKE, CA. I RODE HIS BIKE TO HOLLYWOOD EVERYDAY WHILE HE WAS AT WORK. I ALWAYS DREAMT OF MOVING TO HOLLYWOOD TO BECOME A STAR.WHEN YOU FINALLY GET THERE YOU REALIZE,
    THIS IS NO LONGER KANSAS, TOTO!
    WE RECORDED THIS SONG IN ONE TAKE, THE ONLY OVERDUB IS THE VOCAL.
    THE ENTIRE CD WAS RECORDED THIS WAY, TO GIVE A REAL LIVE FEEL TO THE DISC. THIS WAY IF ANYONE CAME TO SEE US LIVE AT SOME BAR AROUND MIDNIGHT ON A RANDOM FRIDAY NIGHT,
    WE WOULD SOUND JUST LIKE THE CD......DRUNK, LOOSE, AND HAVING FUN.

    Lyrics
    VERSE 1
    FREAKS ON THE CORNER SETTIN THE TRENDS
    BUMS ON THE STREET ON THEIR LAST BENDER
    TOO MUCH TRASH AND TOO MUCH TIME
    NOT MUCH TO EAT ON JUST A DIME
    PEOPLE ASK ME HOW I COULD
    LIVE MY LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD

    VERSE2
    RECORD DEALS ARE DOWN THE STREET
    UP THE HILLS THE PORNO CHICKS IN HEAT
    ALCHOHOL IS NOT ENOUGH
    BUT SMACK FROM SUNSET WILL GET ME TOUGH
    PEOPLE ASK WHY I WOULD
    LIVE MY LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD

    BRIDGE
    GOT THAT NASTY REPUTATION
    FOR FUCKING UP THIS GENERATION
    IT'S NOT A MESS IT'S MISUNDERSTOOD
    IT'S WORSE THAN HELL
    IT'S HOLLYWOOD

    VERSE3
    CIGARS AND MARTINI'S WELL THEY MAKE THE SCENE
    TRANSVESTITE LOVE IS ALL I NEED
    EVERYBODY'S DOING THEIR THING
    THEY'RE KEEPING IN LINE AND KEEPING IN SWING
    PEOPLE ASK ME WHY I WOULD
    LIVE MY LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD
