Sunset Boulevard Lyrics - Michael Ball

Sure, I came out here 

To make my name 

Wanted my pool, my dose of fame 

Wanted my parking space at Warners'. 

 

But, after a year 

A one-room hell 

A murphy bed 

A rancid smell 

Wallpaper peeling at the corners 

 

Sunset Boulevard 

Twisting boulevard 

Secretive and rich, a little scary.

Sunset Boulevard 

Tempting boulevard 

Waiting there to swallow the unwary. 

 

Dreams are not enough 

To win a war 

Out here they're always keeping score 

Beneath the tan, the battle rages. 

 

Smile a rented smile 

Fill someone's glass 

Kiss someone's wife 

Kiss someone's ass 

We do whatever pays the wages.

Sunset boulevard 

Headline boulevard 

Getting here is only the beginning. 

 

Sunset boulevard 

Jackpot boulevard 

Once you've won you have to go on winning. 

 

You think I've sold out? 

Dead right I've sold out. 

I just keep waiting 

For the right offer: 

Comfortable quarters, 

Regular Rations, 

24-hour five-star room service. 

 

And if I'm honest 

I like the lady 

I can't help being 

Touched by her folly. 

I'm treading water, 

Taking her money, 

Watching her sunset... 

Well, I'm a writer. 

 

L.A.'s changed a lot 

Over the years 

Since those brave gold rush pioneers 

Came in their creaky covered wagons. 

 

Far as they could go 

End of the line, 

Their dreams were yours 

Their dreams were mine 

But in those dreams 

Were hidden dragons. 

 

Sunset Boulevard 

Frenzied boulevard 

Swamped with every kind of false emotion. 

 

Sunset Boulevard 

Brutal boulevard 

Just like you, we'll wind up in the ocean. 

 

She was sinking fast 

I threw a rope 

Now I have suites 

And she has hope 

It seemed an elegant solution. 

 

One day this must end, 

It isn't real 

Still I'll enjoy 

A hearty meal 

Before tomorrow's execution. 

 

Sunset Boulevard 

Ruthless boulevard 

Destination for the stony-hearted. 

 

Sunset Boulevard 

Lethal boulevard 

Everyone's forgotten how they started 

Here on Sunset Boulevard!
