White Magic

I'm off to Hollywood

This time I'll be gone for good

Six more days then I'm away

Away from my drinkin' pa and cryin' ma

They can all miss me when I'm gone

Next time they'll see me I'm gonna be a star.



And all the lights they lead me down to one,

From the boulevard to the bastard sons

Been running with cocaine

To fix my game, I got it all figured out now

White magic is gonna get me to the walk of fame.



And I used to get my thrills

From ladies who gave looks that killed

But those days are gone

Soon I'm on the streets

In the land of opportunities, I have to beg on my bare knees

Producers, directors, give me a job soon please.



But all these scams they scare me out of town

You'll find me in the whorehouse of the rising sun

Whatever comes in my way, still on this train

I can turn these things around

My rules applied, let me play.



Revelations for the struggling, cast pearls before swine

And all the pretty went to dirty in my Babylon ride

Come on, where's your head, have a look at you son

Your blue eyes had you chained before the lights came on.



Let me go, let me go away.
