Celluloid Heroes Lyrics - Jon Bon Jovi

Everybody's a dreamer 

And everybody's a star 

And everyone's in movies 

It doesn't matter who you are 

There are stars in every city 

In every house and on every street 

And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard 

Their names are written in concrete 

Don't step on Greta Garbo 

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 they sat her on a throne 

But she turned her back on stardom 

Because she wanted to be alone 

You can see all the stars 

As you walk down Hollywood Boulevard 

Some that you recognize 

Some that you've hardly even heard of 

People who worked 

And suffered and struggled for fame 

Some who succeeded 

And some who suffered in vain 

Rudolph Valentino 

Looks very much alive 

And he looks up ladies' dresses 

As they sadly pass him by 

Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi 

'Cause he's liable to turn and bite 

But stand close by Bette Davis 

Because hers was such a lonely life 

You can see all the stars 

As you walk down Hollywood Boulevard 

Some that you recognize 

Some that you've hardly even heard of 

People who worked 

And suffered and struggled for fame 

Some who succeeded 

And some who suffered in vain 

Everybody's a dreamer 

And everybody's a star 

And everybody's in show biz 

It doesn't matter who you are 

But those who are successful 

Be always on your guard 

Success walks hand in hand with failure 

Along Hollywood Boulevard 

You can see all the stars 

As you walk along Hollywood Boulevard 

Some that you recognize 

Some that you've hardly even heard of 

People who worked and suffered 

And struggled for fame 

Some who succeeded and some 

Who suffered in vain 

I wish my life was a non-stop 

Hollywood movie show 

A fantasy world of celluloid 

Villains and heroes 

'Cause celluloid heroes 

Never feel any pain 

And celluloid heroes 

Never really die 

Everybody's a dreamer 

And everybody's a star 

And everybody's in movies 

It doesn't matter who you are
