Title: lyrics to Hooray for Hollyood Post by: lester1/2jr on July 01, 2003, 04:45:42 PM Hooray for Hollywood
That screwy, ballyhooey Hollywood! Where any office boy Or young mechanic can be a panic With just a good-looking pan (pan=face) And any barmaid Can be a star maid If she dances with or without a fan (reference: Sally Rand*) Hooray for Hollywood! Where you're terrific if you're even good! Where anyone at all from Shirley Temple (child actress) to Aimee Semple (Aimee Semple McPherson - evangelist) is equally understood Come on and try your luck You could be Donald Duck Hooray for Hollywood! Hooray for Hollywood! That phony, super Coney, Hollywood They come from Chilicothes and Padukahs with their bazookas (it could refer to so many things!) To see their names up in lights All armed with photos From local rotos With their hair in curlers and legs in tights Hooray for Hollywood! You may be homely in your neighborhood. Still, if you think that you can be an actor See Mister Factor (Max Factor - makeup artist) He'd make a monkey look good! Within a half an hour You'll look like Tyrone Power (hunky action star) Hooray for Hollywood! |
