I was walking down the street early this morning
Past the graveyard, voices calling to me
I was walking down the street, early this morning
And the silver drops of rain hung from the trees
And I swear I heard the voices singing to me
Singing to the rhythm of the beat of my feet
And I swear I heard the voices singing to me
Keep on, keep on, keep on
I'm still in Hollywood!
Oh wow! Thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
My, my I'm running on a wheel and I don't know why
I don't know why
And on the bus today, I met the queen of L.A.
At least she said she was and who am I to say?
She was sixty-five and full of life
She had purple-painted cheeks
And glitter on her eyes
And the troll on the corner, I flipped him a quarter
And he looked at me and smiled
Well he wasn't abused, he wasn't confused
He had nothing to gain and less to lose in Hollywood
Oh wow! I thought I'd be out of here by now
Still in Hollywood!
My, my I'm running on a wheel and I don't know why
And so it's three AM., I'm out walking again
I'm just a spot on the sidewalk in a city of sin
He doesn't give a fuck, he's living under a truck
You know it coulda been me, I guess it's just my luck
But I swear I hear the sidewalk talking to me
Singing to the rhythm of the beat of my feet
And I swear I hear the sidewalk singing to me
Keep on, keep on, keep on
