* 4-bar intro
* Verse 1 Everybody's a dreamer.
Everybody's a star.
Everybody's in movies.
It doesn't matter who you are.
There are stars in every city,
In every house and on every street.
If you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
Their names are written in concrete.
Don't step on Brette Gargo as you walk down the boulevard.
She looks so weak and fragile,
That's why she tried to be so hard,
But they turned her into a princess
And sat her on a throne,
But she turned her back on stardom
'Cause she wanted to be alone.
* Chorus 1 You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you'd recognise, some that you hardly even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who struggled in vain.
* Verse 2 Rudolf Valentino looks very much alive,
And he looks up ladies' kisses as they sadly pass him by.
Avoid stepping on Bela Lagoshi,
'Cause he's liable to turn and bite,
But stand close by Betty Davis
'Cause hers was such a lonely life.
If you covered him with garbage,
George Sanders would still have style,
And if you stamped on Vicki Rory,
He would still turn around and smile,
But please don't tread on dearest Madeline,
She's not very tough.
She should've been made of iron and steel,
But she was only made of flesh and blood.
* Repeat chorus 1
* Verse 3 Everybody's a dreamer.
Everybody's a star.
Everybody's in showbix.
It doesn't matter who you are,
And those who are successful, be always on your guard.
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Down the Hollywood Boulevard.
* Chorus 2 I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes.
Celluloid heroes never feel any pain.
Celluloid heroes never really die.
* Repeat chorus 2
* Repeat chorus 1
* Repeat chorus 2
