[00:18.62] Sure, I came out here
[00:20.62] To make my name
[00:21.81] Wanted my pool, my dose of fame
[00:23.68] Wanted my parking space at warners.
[00:27.43] But, after a year
[00:28.86] A one-room hell
[00:30.04] A murphy bed
[00:31.04] A rancid smell
[00:32.54] Wallpaper peeling at the corners
[00:35.91] Sunset boulevard
[00:38.16] Twisting boulevard
[00:40.22] Secretive and rich, a little scary.
[00:44.34] Sunset boulevard
[00:46.40] Tempting boulevard
[00:48.46] Waiting there to swallow the unwary.
[00:52.64] Dreams are not enough
[00:54.00] To win a war
[00:55.18] Out here theyre always keeping score
[00:57.48] Beneath the tan, the battle rages.
[01:00.98] Smile a rented smile
[01:02.61] Fill someones glass
[01:03.85] Kiss someones wife
[01:04.79] Kiss someones ass
[01:05.79] We do whatever pays the wages.
[01:09.53] Sunset boulevard
[01:11.72] Headline boulevard
[01:13.71] Getting here is only the beginning.
[01:17.64] Sunset boulevard
[01:19.64] Jackpot boulevard
[01:22.14] Once youve won you have to go on winning.
[01:24.44]
[01:26.25] You think Ive sold out?
[01:27.37] Dead right Ive sold out.
[01:28.31] I just keep waiting
[01:29.06] For the right offer:
[01:30.12] Comfortable quarters,
[01:30.55] Regular rations,
[01:31.55]
[01:32.14] 24-hour five-star room service.
[01:34.70]
[01:35.47] And if Im honest
[01:36.41] I like the lady
[01:37.41] I cant help being
[01:38.34] Touched by her folly.
[01:39.09] Im treading water,
[01:40.58] Taking her money,
[01:41.46] Watching her sunset...
[01:42.46]
[01:43.90] Well, Im a writer.
[01:45.71] L.a.s changed a lot
[01:47.15] Over the years
[01:47.96] Since those brave gold rush pioneers
[01:50.02] Came in their creaky covered wagons.
[01:53.82] Far as they could go
[01:55.32] End of the line,
[01:56.32] Their dreams were yours
[01:57.44] Their dreams were mine
[01:58.38]
[01:59.07] But in those dreams
[02:00.00] Were hidden dragons.
[02:00.50]
[02:02.29] Sunset boulevard
[02:04.28] Frenzied boulevard
[02:06.71] Swamped with every kind of false emotion.
[02:10.33] Sunset boulevard
[02:12.39] Brutal boulevard
[02:14.76] Just like you, well wind up in the ocean.
[02:18.63] She was sinking fast
[02:20.19] I threw a rope
[02:21.07] Now I have suites
[02:22.19] And she has hope
[02:23.06] It seemed an elegant solution.
[02:26.81] One day this must end,
[02:28.30] It isnt real
[02:29.30] Still Ill enjoy
[02:30.30] A hearty meal
[02:31.43] Before tomorrows execution.
[02:35.26] Sunset boulevard
[02:37.19] Ruthless boulevard
[02:39.50] Destination for the stony-hearted.
[02:43.18] Sunset boulevard
[02:45.18] Lethal boulevard
[02:47.67] Everyones forgotten how they started
[02:51.11] Here on sunset boulevard!
