T-Bone Burnett - Hollywood Mecca Of The Movies Lyrics

Hollywood Mecca of the moviesWho are you and why are
you speaking aloud?In this joint there are no cameramen
allowedHe is a personality not a personCrime being
crime wave, the scannerWhat a town,
what a great townWe didn't build this place to last
foreverSodium penathol, pseudologica fantasticaHonesty
is the most subversive of all disguisesI said goodbye
a long time agoYou must not have heard meMeasurement
and signatureHow to throw your voiceDead Pan Alley,
extreme consciousnessPower,
violence, social engineeringSomeone stole my identity
and I feel sorry for himIt's a mortal cinch,
no resilienceWe didn't build this place to last foreverWhat
a town, what a great town Hollywood Mecca of the movies
