No Hollywood Ending Lyrics - The Fixx

When the curtain falls 

And the final scene has ended 

The audience has left the stalls 

The actor stops pretending 

This is no Hollywood ending 

Stares from behind the mask 

Silent, he stands screaming 

Love always plays the part 

Just as the mind starts bending 

This is no Hollywood ending 

This is no Hollywood ending 

Successful, doomed to fail 

From the spotlight to the wings 

As you strip away the veil 

Through makeup to the skin 

This is no Hollywood ending
