Hollywood

[Intro: Jay-Z & Beyoncé]

It ain't for everybody! (Uhh)

Welcome to Hollywood, baby (Take a picture)

Uh-huh, you coming with? (Let's not even talk about it)

Let's do it (let's go) uh-huh

[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé & Jay-Z]

I see your jealousy as you watching (I see you watching me, baby)

You watching (it's all good)

It's kinda sexy to me how you watching (I love it)

You watching (Uh-huh, come on)

I see your face (I see your face)

You wanna touch it (You wanna touch it)

Come to my place (Come to the crib)

And let's discuss it (Let's chop it up)

Tonight you'll be, a superstar

Tonight you gonna be a superstar, baby

Come let me sign you up (Let's get into it)

[Chorus: Beyoncé & Jay-Z]

Ooh it's the lights

You blinded by the (Action!)

You need that (Hollywood!)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on

Ooh it's the lights

You blinded by the (Satisfaction!)

You need that (Hollywood)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on

[Verse 1: Jay-Z]

Paparazzi spots me in the lobby of my high-rise

I hide behind my shades cause the fame is blinding my eyes

My God, I know how Ozzie Oz

Once had felt when he was as high as I have got

I have got to make this stop

People often warn me that the fame ain't for the faint of heart

It'll change those who said they had love for you into strangers

When your fame starts, it's a chain reaction

Locomotion like when the train departs

Stranger, things have happened

Rapping, stacking, platinum plaquin'

Born in Brooklyn, got a place in Manhattan

Going back to Brooklyn to escape the madness

When your friends is, Chris and Gwyneth

When your girl is more famous than you then it's

Time to get all your windows tinted

Keep your eyes squinted, it's gon' flash any minute

The music biz is like musical chairs

It's about where you standing when the music stop spinning

[Chorus: Beyoncé & Jay-Z]

Ooh it's the lights

You blinded by the (Action!)

You need that (Hollywood!)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on

Ooh it's the lights

You blinded by the (Satisfaction!)

You need that (Hollywood)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on

[Post-Chorus: Beyoncé & Jay-Z]

You got to get it (Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)

Do you want it? (Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)

But you don't need it (Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)

What do you do? Oh oh oh oh

Now that you got what you want

What do you do? Oh oh oh, hey

Oh you want more?

[Verse 2: Jay-Z]

Hey mister, pay six-a, a list-a, you're in the mist of

The ride of your life but you gotta keep them hits up

Can't put your guard down, gotta keep your mitts up

Take a sip, sir, it's so intoxicating, ain't it?

Try not to get jaded, Hollywood's been good to ya

Startin' feel like buzz to ya, don't lie

Gon' fly, you addicted to the lights

Without the fame how you gon' survive

It's like living on heroin, you so high

[Bridge: Beyoncé & Jay-Z]

And everybody warning you about it (I tried to told you)

And once you taste, you can't live without it (It's addictive)

Not cause you choose to not live without it

You sure you want this, baby?

It's now a part of you, it's now a part of you (It's a part of you)

And everybody warning you about it

I see you changed, I see you blinded

And once you taste you can't live

[Chorus: Beyoncé & Jay-Z]

Ooh it's the lights

You blinded by the (Action!)

You need that (Hollywood!)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on

Ooh it's the lights

You blinded by the (Satisfaction!)

You need that (Hollywood)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, come on

[Verse 3: Jay-Z]

Wanna be seen, male groupies

Now you've become what you once despised

James Dean, John Belushi

Blow your whole life tryna live in the lights

Heroins following Marilyn

Hoppin' over the edge just like Janis Joplin

River Phoenix, Jimi Hendrix

Jimmy Morrison, all of them ended by

Hollywood, thank God for Hollywood

Hollywood, sure you want this baby?

[Outro: Jay-Z]

Hollywood

It's the most addicted drug in the world

Want the fame? You want the lights?

Hahaha
