[Verse 1]
Well her skin it was softer than velvet
And her eyes were as bright as a child's
Her lips were a promising picture
Warm and celluloid
But her words had me thinkin' too deeply
The meaning belying her face
Made me look just a little bit closer
Between the lines
[Chorus]
L.A. smiles to hide the frown
L.A. promises to follow you down
L.A. teeth and L.A. hair
L.A. curves that shouldn't be there
They really shouldn't be there
[Verse 2]
She said you've got to be seen at the Roxy
The strippers will know who we are
But you've got to be seen to be happy
You're a Tinseltown star
You're going upwards and downwards and sideways
Man you're really caught up in a dream
With your head burning under the starlight
From the studio scene
Well her skin it was softer than velvet
And her eyes were as bright as a child's
Her lips were a promising picture
Warm and celluloid
But her words had me thinkin' too deeply
The meaning belying her face
Made me look just a little bit closer
Between the lines
[Chorus]
L.A. smiles to hide the frown
L.A. promises to follow you down
L.A. teeth and L.A. hair
L.A. curves that shouldn't be there
They really shouldn't be there
[Verse 2]
She said you've got to be seen at the Roxy
The strippers will know who we are
But you've got to be seen to be happy
You're a Tinseltown star
You're going upwards and downwards and sideways
Man you're really caught up in a dream
With your head burning under the starlight
From the studio scene
