Hollywood Potters

Lyrics

Mother's hold on to your sons and your daughters
 Should Hollywood claim them, you'll hold then no more
 'Cause they'll become claimed to the Hollywood potters
 And there's no escape once they walk through that door
 Hollywood, Hollywood Dungeon of Drama
 Center of sorrow, city of schemes
 Hollywood, Hollywood Terrace of Trauma
 Palace of promises, dealer in dreams
 Some, they go hungry and some go insane
 Some go to the bottle and some to the vains
 Some become users and some become used
 And some even make it but most never do
 Hollywood, Hollywood Dungeon of Drama
 Center of sorrow, you city of schemes
 Hollywood, a Hollywood Terrace of Trauma
 Palace of promises, dealer in dreams
 You spin them around like a merry-go-round
 You mold them and shape them and then throw them down
 All of your glitter and all of your gold
 Is that what you give in exchange for a soul?
 'Cause they sell their soles for the likes of you
 While you chew up and spit out what you cannot use
 So mother's hold on to your sons and your daughters
 Should Hollywood claim them, you'll hold then no more
 'Cause they'll become claimed to the Hollywood potters
 And there's no escape once they walk through that door
 Hollywood, Hollywood Dungeon of Drama
 Center of sorrow, city of schemes
 Hollywood, a Hollywood Terrace of Trauma
 Palace of promises, dealer in dreams
