You don't look the same as the last time I saw you
But that don't mean you don't look good
I'm just wondering how they're treating you
Down in Old Hollywood
I used to go there when I was
Still young enough to find it funny
When my mother would dress her wounds
And say "Honey, I'm just clumsy"
Down there they've got slip sliding stair cases
And a hefty supply of grimacing faces
That will watch you as you ride away
Hoping for a better day
Tomorrow
I met a man there named Mr. Clean
Said he'd fix any mess for you
Imagine the surprise in my nine year old eyes
Seeing grenades and combat boots
In his garage as he said
"No I ain't got no money to spare
but I've got a heavy fist
and man that's all you need to get around here"
Down there they've got slip sliding stair cases
And a hefty supply of grimacing faces
That will watch you as you ride away
Hoping for a better day
Tomorrow
Guru speed doctors were always willing
To make house calls
We'd watch the transformation
And then try to walk it off
Money taken was always
considered money earned
And if this city taught me anything
Well, I guess that's what I learned
Down there they've got slip sliding stair cases
And a hefty supply of grimacing faces
That will watch you as you ride away
Hoping for a better day
Tomorrow
You don't look the same as the last time I saw you
But that don't mean you don't look good
I'm just wondering how they're treating you
Down in Old Hollywood
