Sunset Strip Lyrics

Sitting here on top of the hill
I've got everything
I ever need from this world
Oh tonight, I got it right
Just one time

Cruising down the Sunset Strip
And there is nothing that's not
That's not within my grip
Oh tonight, I can fly
I can fly, yeah

Look at me for the very last time
I've climbed so high
I've got no place left to climb
I'm too good for tomorrow, oh

Rock star, pop star, everybody dies
All tomorrow's parties
They have happened tonight
And I know
That I won't
Be tomorrow

Sitting on the Hollywood sign
Watching the girls get off the bus
Watching the sparkle in their eyes
And they leave with broken hearts
Their useless valentines

I came here from a dirty dark street
There was no one there to protect me
To make the nightmares go away
It has to sparkle
It has to shine

Look at me for the very last time
See if you find any life in my eyes
I won't beg, no way, not from sorrow

Rock star, pop star, everybody dies
All tomorrow's parties
They have happened tonight
And I know that I won't see tomorrow

Turn off the pornos
Been drowning here for days
Bad food, bad sex, bad TV, internet
Take all these stupid pills away

Crashing down the boulevard
I'm coming down so fast
I'm coming down so hard
And the doctor said, "I can't stop
All those voices in your head"

Look at me for the very last time
I'm drowning here, I'm drowning at the speed of light
And I know, no tomorrow

Rock star, pop star, I'll just stay alive
All tomorrow's parties
They have happened tonight
And I know that I won't leave tomorrow

No
Climbing all the mountains in this dirty little town
It was easy going up, it's so hard to come down
That you walked away and went and rocked it tomorrow

Yeah
Yesterday's girl or tomorrow's hot teen?
Were you jerking off to her
Or were you jerking off to me?
On a rockstar, waitin' 'til the wheels fall off
'Cause girls like me, she never gets what she wants

Top-down, yahoo, million-dollar pills
No one knows the other way through Hollywood Hills
And I know, we'll be late for tomorrow

No
You were made for me, Oh baby, I was made for you
Keys to the Bel-Air, the chateau too
It's not pomp, it's not cool, it's not even boring
You rock'n'roll bitches always get what you want, yeah

Oh God, they tried to steal my soul
I got pils when I'm famous
I got pills when I'm old
Your little sugar-coated world
It is rotten to the core
And I didn't know you were born without a soul

I've got pills for when I'm blonde
I've got pills when I'm dead
I got pills that make me forget what I said
Beyond all delusions and a questionable head
Look at my eyes, oh baby, tell me we are dead

Sitting on the Hollywood sign
Watching love walk out
Watching the light in my eyes
Tonight, I got it right, just one time

Cruising down the Sunset Strip
There is nothing that's not
That's not within my grip
You said, "Tonight, baby you fly, know you can fly"
