Celluloid Heroes
Blackmore's Night

Everybody's a dreamer

And everybody's a star

And everybody's in movies

It doesn't matter who you are


There are stars in every city

In every house, on every street

And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard

Their names are written in concrete


Don't step on Greta Garbo

As you walk down the boulevard

She looks so weak and fragile

That's why she tried to be so hard


But they turned her into a princess

And they sat her on a throne

But she turned her back on stardom

Because she wanted to be alone


You can see all the stars

As you walk down Hollywood Boulevard

Some that you recognize

Some that you've hardly even heard of


People who worked and suffered

And struggled for fame

Some who succeeded and

Some who suffered in vain


If you covered him with garbage

George Sanders would still have style

And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney

He'd still turn 'round and smile


But don't tread on dearest Marilyn

'Cause she's not very tough

She should have been made of iron or steel

But she was only flesh and blood


You can see all the stars

As you walk down Hollywood Boulevard

Some that you recognize

Some that you've hardly even heard of



People who worked and suffered

And struggled for fame

Some who succeeded and

Some who suffered in vain


You can see all the stars

As you walk down Hollywood Boulevard

Some that you recognize

Some that you've hardly even heard of


People who worked and suffered

And struggled for fame

Some who succeeded and

Some who suffered in vain


Rudolph Valentino

Looks very much alive

And he looks up ladies' dresses

As they sadly pass him by


Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi

'Cause he's liable to turn and bite

But stand close by Bette Davis

Because hers was such a lonely life


I wish my life was a non stop Hollywood movie show

A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes

Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain

And celluloid heroes never really die


Everybody's a dreamer

And everybody's a star

And everybody's in show biz

It doesn't matter who you are


And for those who are successful

Be always on your guard

Success walks hand in hand with failure

Along Hollywood Boulevard
