Lyrics Sunset Boulevard - Alan Campbell, Paul Bogaev & Orchestra
Sure
I
came
out
here
to
make
my
name
Wanted
my
pool,
my
dose
of
fame
Wanted
my
parking
space
at
Warner's
But
after
a
year,
a
one
room
hell
A
Murphy
bed,
a
rancid
smell
Wallpaper
peeling
at
the
corners
Sunset
Boulevard,
twisting
boulevard
Secretive
and
rich,
a
little
scary
Sunset
Boulevard,
tempting
boulevard
Waiting
there
to
swallow
the
unwary
Dreams
are
not
enough
to
win
a
war
Out
here
they're
always
keeping
score
Beneath
the
tan
the
battle
rages
Smile
a
rented
smile,
fill
someone's
glass
Kiss
someone's
wife,
kiss
someone's
ass
We
do
whatever
pays
the
wages
Sunset
Boulevard,
headline
boulevard
Getting
here
is
only
the
beginning
Sunset
Boulevard,
jackpot
boulevard
Once
you've
won
you
have
to
go
on
winning
You
think
I've
sold
out?
Dead
right
I've
sold
out!
I
just
keep
waiting
for
the
right
offer
Comfortable
quarters,
regular
rations
24
hour
Five
Star
room
service
And
if
I'm
honest,
I
like
the
lady
I
can't
help
being
touched
by
her
folly
I'm
treading
water,
taking
the
money
Watching
her
sun
set,
well,
I'm
a
writer!
L.A.'s
changed
a
lot
over
the
years
Since
those
brave
gold
rush
pioneers
Came
in
their
creaky
covered
wagons
Far
as
they
could
go
end
of
the
line
Their
dreams
were
yours,
their
dreams
were
mine
But
in
those
dreams
were
hidden
dragons
Sunset
Boulevard,
frenzied
boulevard
Swamped
with
every
kind
of
false
emotion
Sunset
Boulevard,
brutal
boulevard
Just
like
you,
we'll
wind
up
in
the
ocean
She
was
sinking
fast,
I
threw
a
rope
Now
I
have
suits
and
she
has
hope
It
seemed
an
elegant
solution
One
day
this
must
end,
it
isn't
real
Still
I'll
enjoy
a
hearty
meal
Before
tomorrow's
execution
Sunset
Boulevard,
ruthless
boulevard
Destination
for
the
stony-hearted
Sunset
Boulevard,
lethal
boulevard
Everyone's
forgotten
how
they
started
Here
on
Sunset
Boulevard!
