Description

This Town’s abandoned and neglected
cola cans glisten on the streets
a deserted taxi station in the rain
has missin’ doors and broken window panes

lonely howlin’ dogs of the alleys
plastic food bags empty from their search
swingin’ shop signs play like violins
to an audience of plastic mannequins

Out of date hollywood scene
Is that how your life has been?
Is that how your life has been?

As neon lights flicker through the haze
cardboard boxes travel with the wind
Shadows make you feel you’re not alone
a phone booth waves with a hangin’ phone

Out of date hollywood scene
Is that how your life has been?
Is that how your life has been?

Your clothes weigh heavy soaked with rain
and lengths of gutter swing on just a nail
A traffic light changes red to green
but there’s no traffic... to be seen

Out of date hollywood scene
Is that how your life has been?
Is that how your life has been?
