Lonely
|
Lonely
|
Lonely
|
Lonely
|
God know's you're ambitious, see you push so hard
|
You want to get to the top of the heap from Sunset Boulevard
|
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
|
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
|
|
'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
|
Baby, it's hot!
|
It's lonely, lonely at the top
|
Baby, it's hot!
|
They're going to tear your soul away
|
|
Theater is deserted and the boards are bare
|
You're next up for the reading and you're feeling scared
|
Oh, but you really want the part so bad
|
Yeah, go on, show them how a star should act
|
|
Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
|
Baby, it's hot
|
Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
|
Baby, it's hot
|
They're going to tear your soul away
|
|
You could be a doctor, you could be a nurse
|
There's no time to rehearse
|
You work as a waitress, you clean up the bar
|
But soon you'll be noticed, you'll be a star
|
|
You get your nomination, your heart's beating fast
|
Yes, and the winner is you! You won the prize at last
|
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
|
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
|
|
'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
|
Yeah, baby, it's hot!
|
They're going to strip your soul away
|
It's lonely, lonely
|
It's lonely
|
You get hungry, you get thirsty
|
You know you get thirsty...
