Hollywood Perfume

I went out on the balcony in the middle of the night

The hotel was dark except for just one light

Television burning in the other room

I couldn't sleep so I put on some of your

Hollywood perfume

I went out on the balcony and looked across the way

Some guy was shadow boxing, he looked like sugar ray

I was feeling dizzy - began to swoon

Was it his punch or was it just your

Hollywood perfume?

I feel like a fugitive escaped from my life

Seeking refuge in the sensual heat

These paper-thin walls make me party to calls

Of love wafting through the room

The night jasmine bloom

Of your hollywood perfume

I went out on the balcony to clear my head

I was burning up in my queen-sized bed

Down on the strip beneath the billboard moon

Teenaged girls look for love in the

Neon sex and doom

Of your hollywood perfume

I went out on the balcony with your photograph

I dropped it in the pool and that made me laugh

You like your tan but you don't like to swim

Meanwhile I feel like I'm drowning in

Neon sex and doom

The night jasmine bloom

Of your hollywood perfume
