Lyrics
Stone Cold Hollywood
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He likes to think that he’s politically connected
No matter what comes down he’s cool
He lives his life as thought he’s magically protected
And treats the rest of us like fools
He’s always first in line when someone else is flashin’
To claim he did it on his own
He’ll always hide behind somebody else’s passion
He’ll wrap it up and take it home
You know that he’s oh, so terminally hip
Nobody can clip the wings of a fool
‘Cause he’ll never take much more than a sip
He’ll miss out on the trip as long as he’s cool
And he’s
Stone cold Hollywood
Standin’ in front of you
An emperor without a stitch of clothes on
Stone cold Hollywood
Hiding from the truth
Responsible for everything that’s goin’ on
He’s always found a way whenever he’s in trouble
To place the blame on somebody else
You know it’s safe to say he lives inside his bubble
And if he feels he keeps it to himself
You know that he’s oh, so quiet and cruel
Abusing the rules just to have it his way
He will never know or care for the truth
As long as he’s cool he’ll pose it away
(Repeat chorus)
He’s definitely cold, he’s typically bold
And he’s dancin’ around in the clothing that he stole
He’s smellin’ the gold, and sellin’ your soul
And he’s doin’ his best to hide his getting’ old
He thinks that he’s bad, when his shit is so sad
But he’s takin’ the bows for what he’s never had
He’s followin’ fads, but he’s slippin’ a tad
‘Cause he’s never been the reason to be glad
