lyrics

I'm going to the USA
Going to California
I'm gonna live in Hollywood
I'm gonna get drunk in Hollywood

And as I walk down the street
All the people that I meet
In the sunshine they'd look good
The beautiful people of Hollywood

I'm heading out to where the grass is green
And I'll be part of the L.A. scene
'Cause haven't you heard I'm gonna be free
Free from the chains that are binding me
And all my wealth will be plain to see

I'm gonna hang out with the stars
And look at how far I have come to Hollywood
My life will be good in Hollywood

But it is miles away from where I am right now
I'm gonna make it, I'm gonna get there
I don't know how
But it's a shame I'm gonna be leaving home behind
It's a shame I'm gonna be leaving

When my days are all but done
And my final song's been sung
And the sun comes down on Hollywood
I'll have done it all in Hollywood

An amazing album by The Greek Theatre with a blend of soft Psychedelic sounds combining a little Progressive rock, and soft New Age / Dream Pop vocals. This is Excellent music by an excellent band! Reminds of mid to late 60’s psychedelic, soft psychedelic rock with a touch of 70 progressive rock, and current Dream Pop vocals.
