I'm kinda surprised I'm the first comment on this song, but I'm very confused. This is what I've always though the lyrics were:
"Let's pack our bags and head head out west
Where the cities only breed evil's best
The entertainment loop becomes a throne
Where sex, drugs, in balance we condone.
Sex and hollywood
Well, just try to imagine glamour as our sin
And sleep it off by tomorrow
'Cause I am the nightmare
I'm not what it seems
I'll be the style you've chosen,
And we'll live the dream.
Sex and hollywood"
I always took it as a sort of sarcastic criticism of the false glamour of fame and fortune, of doing whatever you're told is the way to happiness and living with the consequences. I think I'm right, but if I'm not, every other lyrics site on the web says this:
"Well let's pack our bags and head west
Where the cities only breed evil, yes,
The entertainment news becomes approach
But sex, drugs, and ballads wake a dog
Sex and Hollywood
Well just try to make me glimmer anti sin
And see if I survive tomorrow
Cause I am the nightmare, not what it says
All feels how you've chosen, and we'll live the dread
Sex and Hollywood"
So, I want to believe this song is deep and satirical, but maybe Andy just got high...
