Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

I've seen all the best of my Hollywood Highs
The best of the last, the cleanest star they ever had
I'm stiff on my legend
The films that I made
Forget that I'm fifty
'Cause you just got paid
Crack, baby, crack
Oh, show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack
Is that all that you feel
Suck, baby, suck
Come on, give me your head
Before you start professing that you're knocking me dead
You found yourself a trick down on Sunset and Vine
But since he pinned you, baby, you're a porcupine
You sold me illusion for a bag full of checks
You've made a bad connection 'cause I just want your sex
Crack, baby, crack
Oh, show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack
Is that all that you feel
Suck, baby, suck
Come on, give me your head
Before you start professing that you're knocking me dead
Oh, stay
Go my way
Hey, hey, hey
