Just Like Anything

[Intro]

It's just like anything... (x6)

[Verse 1]

Captain Jack was a suicide pimp with a nonstop nosebleed

Fell in love with a church choir tramp

Found out she was a drag queen

Crown him the Hollywood kid

Spent his time in another man's bed

"Does anybody care?", he said

Jimmy Jaw took a ten story dive, about sixteen-thousand feet

I watched the body go splat and they scraped him off the street

Now, he's a Hollywood kid

Tried to fly, they found him dead

"Is anybody there?", he said

[Chorus]

Stars laid out on the Hollywood squares

Going 'round and 'round like musical chairs

But be ready to rumble

Be ready to fight, if you wanna live through the boulevard night

Get ready for problems, get ready for pain

If you wanna play the L.A. game

Where you got to hustle and nothing is fair

Or be a chalk outline on a Hollywood square

[Verse 2]

Lady Faye back in '52 was a f-f-fiend for fame

Not a lick of talent, paid dues, got fucked by John Wayne

Crown her the Hollywood queen, she gives head in every scene

"Did anybody stare?", she said

That's what she said

[Chorus]

Stars laid out on the Hollywood Squares

Going 'round and 'round like musical chairs

But be ready to rumble

Be ready to fight, if you wanna live through the boulevard night

Get ready for problems, get ready for pain

If you wanna play the L.A. game

Where you got to hustle and nothing is fair

Or be a chalk outline

On a Hollywood Square

[Bridge]

Yeah

Ya don't know anything (x5)

[Outro]

Crown you

The Hollywood kid

Burned up time and now you're dead

"Does anybody care?", he said

I said

They crowned you

The Hollywood kid

Burned up time and now you're dead

"Does anybody care?", he said
