Ballad of a Hollywood Dreamer
I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And I walked right inside my old TV
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I swear I was never ever gonna leave?
We don't have to stay here
Fine, we could go up till we reach the sky
I heard that they hold auditions until 9
But don't you think that everyone
Just wants you to stop trying
Wanting you back but they're lying
And I can't help but wish we were birds
Taking off and flying
Cause I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And thought I'd be a dancer in a movie scene
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I stand up to anyone or anything
And I still wanna stay here
Fine
Cause I hear they're calling, calling back till 9
And they say I must be ready all the time
And my agent said I must pretend I'm fine
And dye my hair blonde that night
The role would sure be mine
Cause I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And I walked right inside my old TV
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I swear I was never ever gonna leave?
What does it mean to be free?
And does it mean you're a bird in your sleep
Does it mean you don't call when you leave
But then how do they know where to send your stuff?
What does it mean to be free?
Does it mean you're a car in your sleep
And you drive but you don't wanna think
But then how do you know where you're going yeah
Where you're going at?
Cause I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And thought I'd be a dancer in a movie scene
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I stand up to anyone or anything
And I walked right inside my old TV
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I swear I was never ever gonna leave?
We don't have to stay here
Fine, we could go up till we reach the sky
I heard that they hold auditions until 9
But don't you think that everyone
Just wants you to stop trying
Wanting you back but they're lying
And I can't help but wish we were birds
Taking off and flying
Cause I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And thought I'd be a dancer in a movie scene
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I stand up to anyone or anything
And I still wanna stay here
Fine
Cause I hear they're calling, calling back till 9
And they say I must be ready all the time
And my agent said I must pretend I'm fine
And dye my hair blonde that night
The role would sure be mine
Cause I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And I walked right inside my old TV
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I swear I was never ever gonna leave?
What does it mean to be free?
And does it mean you're a bird in your sleep
Does it mean you don't call when you leave
But then how do they know where to send your stuff?
What does it mean to be free?
Does it mean you're a car in your sleep
And you drive but you don't wanna think
But then how do you know where you're going yeah
Where you're going at?
Cause I never dreamed till I was seventeen
And thought I'd be a dancer in a movie scene
Who would I be if I was seventeen?
Would I stand up to anyone or anything
