Blendin' into the neon gloom

F
Well, you see them down on the Sunset Strip
G
Trying so hard to be so hip
F
Manhattan Beach to Malibu

It's all about the ocean view

And who you know in Hollywood
G
It's cut-throat but it's understood
F
Champagne, Kool-Aid, drink it down
D7
You're the toast of Tinsel Town…
