Bio

Lyrics

They murdered Anne Heche on live TV
Said Michael Hastings drove into a tree
And Laurel Canyon’s way too close to me
So, it’s goodbye Hollywood, now

They pushed Kobe Bryant out of the sky
Then convinced you your body was a sty
Am I the only one who thinks it’s a lie
Well, it’s goodbye Hollywood, now

Let’s go eat some pie
I don’t need no reason why
I just want to look in your eye
So I know so I know so I know
So I know when you’re going to lie

This whole place is crawling with Feds
Who stab you in the back and declare you’re dead
They’ll even lie about what you said
So, it’s goodbye Hollywood, now

You dumped me when I got cancer
They rest of you followed when they crowned the gesture
Because Lookout Mountain gives your answer
And it’s goodbye Hollywood, now

Your body they said belong to us
We kidnapped your mind, threw you under a bus
200 North Spring Street is full of puss
So, it’s goodbye Hollywood now
