Hollywood Mecca Of The Movies Lyrics - T Bone Burnett

Hollywood Mecca of the movies 

Who are you and why are you speaking aloud? 

In this joint there are no cameramen allowed 

He is a personality not a person 

Crime being crime wave, the scanner 

What a town, what a great town 

We didn't build this place to last forever 

Sodium penathol, pseudologica fantastica 

Honesty is the most subversive of all disguises 

I said goodbye a long time ago 

You must not have heard me 

Measurement and signature 

How to throw your voice 

Dead Pan Alley, extreme consciousness 

Power, violence, social engineering 

Someone stole my identity and I feel sorry for him 

It's a mortal cinch, no resilience 

We didn't build this place to last forever 

What a town, what a great town 

Hollywood Mecca of the movies
