she was a dancer
for the Denishawns
twirling and whirling
with Miss Martha Graham
she was too pretty
at the age fifteen
so she was fired
like it was all a dream
and so Lulu
Lulu went to Hollywood
Lulu
Lulu went to Hollywood
she was a terror
to the toxic male
escaped the error
of the whores in jail
she had to laugh
back of the motor car
all those producers
just wanna make a star
Lulu
Lulu in Hollywood
Lulu
Lulu in Hollywood
she put a knife
in the studio
no one's wife
and no where else to go
but back to Europe
where they all knew her name
the silent movies
were her claim to fame
Lulu
Lulu left Hollywood
Lulu
Lulu left Hollywood
Pandora's Box
was meant to open wide
and when it's empty
you can hide inside
now all that's left
of a young girl's dream
is what you see
up there on the screen
Lulu
come back to Hollywood
Lulu
Lulu
Lulu
come back to Hollywood
"she was a terror
to the toxic male
escaped the error
of the whores in jail"
But in the end, this lyric boils down to how fame can ruin a girl.
