Celluloid Heroes [live]

RAY DAVIES

Everybody’s a dreamer and everybody’s a star
And everybody’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 recognise
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
’cos he’s liable to turn and bite
But stand close by bette davis
Because hers was such a lonely life
If you covered him with garbage
George sanders would still have style
And if you stamped on mickey rooney
He would still turn round and smile
But please don’t tread on dearest marilyn
’cos she’s not very tough
She should have been made of iron or steel
But she was only made of flesh and blood
You can see all the stars as
You walk down hollywood boulevard
Some that you recognise
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

And those who are successful
Be always on your guard
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along hollywood boulevard

I wish my life was a
Non-stop hollywood movie show
A fantasy world of celluloid
Villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die

You can see all the stars as
You walk along hollywood boulevard
Some that you recognise
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

Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain
Oh celluloid heroes never really die
I wish my life was a
Non-stop hollywood movie show
A fantasy world of celluloid
Villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die
