(Dolly Parton)

Mother's hold on to your sons and you daughters 
Should Hollywood claim them, you'll hold then no more 
Cause they'll become claimed to the Hollywood potters 
And there's no escape once they walk through that door 

Hollywood, Hollywood Dungeon of Drama 
Center of sorrow, city of schemes 
Hollywood, Hollywood Terrace of Trauma 
Palace of promises, dealer in dreams 

Some, they go hungry and some go insane 
Some go to the bottle and some to the vains 
Some become users and some become used 
And some even make it, but most never do 

Hollywood, Hollywood Dungeon of Drama 
Center of sorrow, city of schemes 
Hollywood, Hollywood Terrace of Trauma 
Palace of promises, dealer in dreams 

You spin them around like a merry-go-round 
You mold them and shape them and then throw them down 
All of your glitter and all of your gold 
Is that what you give in exchange for a soul 
Cause they sell their soles for the likes of you 
While you chew up and spit out what you cannot use 

Mother's hold on to your sons and you daughters 
Should Hollywood claim them, you'll hold then no more 
Cause they'll become claimed to the Hollywood potters 
And there's no escape once they walk through that door 

Hollywood, Hollywood Dungeon of Drama 
Center of sorrow, city of schemes 
Hollywood, Hollywood Terrace of Trauma 
Palace of promises, dealer in dreams
