Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was walking down the street early this morning
Past the graveyard, voices calling to me
I was walking down the street, early this morning
And the silver drops of rain hung from the trees
And I swear I heard the voices singing to me
[Verse 2]
Singing to the rhythm of the beat of my feet
And I swear I heard the voices singing to me
Keep on, keep on, keep on
[Verse 3]
I'm still in Hollywood!
Oh wow! Thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
My, my, I'm running on a wheel and I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
[Verse 4]
And on the bus today, I met the queen of L.A.
At least she said she was and who am I to say?
She was 65 and full of life
She had purple-painted cheeks
And glitter on her eyes
And the troll on the corner, I flipped him a quarter
And he looked at me and smiled
Well he wasn't abused, he wasn't confused
He had nothing to gain and less to lose
[Verse 5]
Still In Hollywood!
Oh wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
My, my, I'm running on a wheel and I don't know why
Still in Hollywood!
Oh wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
My, my, I'm running on a wheel and I don't know, don't know, don't know why
[Verse 6]
So it's three A.M., I'm out walking again
I'm just a spot on the sidewalk in the city of sin
He doesn't give a fuck, he's living under a truck
You know it coulda' been me, I guess it's just my luck
But I swear I hear the sidewalk talking to me
Singing to the rhythm of the beat of my feet
And I swear I heard the sidewalk singing to me
Keep on, keep on, keep on
[Verse 7]
I'm still in Hollywood!
Oh wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
Whoo, my, my, I'm running on a wheel and I don't know why
I'm still in Hollywood!
Oh wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
My, my, I'm running on a wheel and I don't know why
Still in Hollywood!
Wow wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
Want to get out! Want to get out!
Still in Hollywood!
Want to get out! I want to get out!
Still in Hollywood!
Oh wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Here I am
