City of Angels
Dogs walk free with diamonds collars
Free men hang from ropes and dollars
Train tracks stitch the jagged scars
Stretched faces on aging stars
Empty beds in furniture stores
Angels sleep on skid row floors
Broken wings for a dollar a pound
"Can you spare some change?"
And I'm strolling down, rolling down
Sunset Boulevard
I see the paparazzi try to catch a falling star
It's just another day you're on your way
In the city of angels
All the make-up in this town covers the frowns
And the world seems upside down
Oh...
Car kissing on the 4-0-5
Colors blend and intertwine
You and me, we are just a bunch of dreamers
Lucky to collide
Sure, we living on nickels and dimes
And the Earth could shake at anytime
But we're holding on to something true
And with your hand and mine
We'll be strolling down, rolling down
Sunset Boulevard
They say that opposites attract
Well, this is the city for us
It's just another day you're on your way
In the city of angels
Leave a make-up in this town for all the clowns
Cause the world seems upside down
In the City of Angels
Let it rain, rain down
Wash the make-up from this town
Let it rain, rain down
Thirsty people all around
It's just another day you're on your way
In the city of angels
Leave a make-up in this town for all the clowns
Oh the world seems upside down
Yeah the world seems upside down
In the City of Angels
