lyrics

Hello my old friend
That’s right,
It’s me again
This time,
Let’s never end
‘Cos we were little Star Shines
Sitting on the corner of
Hollywood,
Somewhere in time
Las Palmas,
Errol Flynns too
Cherokee,
On the wall
The cuckoo knew who flew
We walked for miles
We wore sad smiles
Life made you
Glad to be wild
‘Cos we were little Star Shines
Sitting on the corner of
Hollywood
Somewhere in time
Holding court in our Garden Apartments
Shot down
To hell
Like we were forgotten
Shot down
To Hell
We were shot down to Hell
Living a four letter word called Pain
Sleeping on rooftops
Riding Night Train
Our numb bodies getting fed by the sun
We were shot down to Hell
Down down below
The lowest low
No earth person
Would ever go
We were little Star Shines
Sitting on the corner of
Hollywood,
Somewhere in time
Cathay was Grande,
So was the Mayfair Market
I went to Planet Orchid,
So I could forget about it
Forget about it,
Forget
We were shot down to Hell
Living a four letter word called pain
Sneaking into the Vine Lodge,
The Gilbert and Mark Twain
Oh help me,
Brother,
Can you spare a dime?
Cos I’m shot down to Hell
Hello my old friend
Remember when
That’s right,
This time lets never end
