Hollywood Lyrics - Singles - Wild Strawberries

I got a picture of my friends and me 

Sitting outside Thistletown Laundry at night 

That looks like me between the Holly twins 

Singing hey ho this is your life 

And there's old Ruby and her worn out magazines 

And the guy we called Joe Cinnamon who's polishing his speech 

Hey it looks like Hollywood 

Hey it looks like Hollywood 

Joe married one of the Holly twins 

And they ran the local five and dime 

My mama told me that the other twin 

Got a teaching job at Thistletown High 

But me and Ruby and her worn out magazines 

Jumped a box car on the western line by ol' Cole Martin's stream 

Well me and Ruby had big plans 

Gonna' move to the city gonna' be larger than life 

Just like the girl beside the Marlboro man 

And the pretty lady in the Ivory ad 

Thistletown, Indiana is no place for me 

Give me miles and miles of neon signs and flashy magazines 

Me, I sold my camera for a string of beads 

And Ruby sold he mother's china figurines 

I got a picture of Ruby and me 

Selling candy bars at the Roxy 

The guy who took it called us calendar girls 

And he said someday he'd make us famous 

But me and Ruby never made no magazines 

All we got was just a cold recurrent broken bottle dream
