Hollywood Lawn Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On a Hollywood lawn today
Slip and slide, watching the kids play
You know that I love you, babe
Dozin' off watchin' the channels change

[Chorus]
I been searching for the heart to tell you somethin'
I could get down on my knees
I've had it with you trippers and drama queens
If I click my ruby slippers like Don Quixote
I'm long lost like Rockefeller drifting off to sea

[Verse 2]
On a Hollywood lawn today
Suckin' back some Beaujolais
Rememberin' better days
Lookin' up at the chem-trail haze

[Chorus]
If you keep dreamin', keep dreamin', alright
If you keep dreamin', keep sleepin' through the night
'Cause your demons got reason to fight
And you keep dreamin', yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
Rollin' down a Kingston highway
Eureka moment come my way
You know that I love you, babe
I just cannot stay

[Chorus]
I been searching for the heart to tell you somethin'
I could get down on my knees
I've had it with you trippers and drama queens
If I click my ruby slippers, would you forgive me?
I'm long lost like Rockefeller drifting off to sea
And you keep dreamin', keep dreamin', alright
If you keep dreamin', keep sleepin' through the night
'Cause your demons got reason to fight
And you keep dreamin', yeah, yeah

[Outro]
And your demons got reason to fight
And your demons got reason to fight
And your demons got reason to fight
And you keep dreamin', yeah, yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
