you'll never get it right

they got a hundred lies for you

and when they pass them out

you gotta give or take a few

and be just the same

a head in the crowd but behind the game

oh well, you never can tell



such a clever kid

but i see what's wrong with you

it's all you ever did

take lies and believe them too (true)

knew it all along

another act and a truth gone wrong

oh no

it ain't my hollywood



i went on stricke when the union said i would

had a sign in my hand cause the times were no good

and all this time all they ever told me too

was to get a little lie to ring a little true



i went on strike when the union said i should

had a sign in my hand cause the times were no good

and all this time all they eer told me too

was to get a little more for your little you



and maybe you're alright

and mabye i don't have a clue

yeah, maybe black is white

and maybe black is white too

but it's all the same

you don't get the picture 

your getting framed

you too the bait and now it's too late



you didn't turn out right 

just look at you

you had the biggest plans

but no way to carry through

it was all an act

and now you can't stick to the facts

oh no

it ain't my hollywood



i went on strike when the union said i would

had a sign in my hand cause the times were no good

and all this time all they ever told me too

was to get a little lie to ring a little true



you spent your time just like they said you should now

those marks on your face just don't 

look any good

and all this time all that they told you to

was get a little more for your little you
