He's a mover, he's a shaker. He's a big money makernSpit and shine on his alligator shoesnDoin' what he's doin', headed straight for ruinnAnd he doesn't even have a cluenThe hollow man hasn't asked where it all happensnGotta window on the forty-second floornWhoever would have thought it turns out the only thing he wantednAin't the thing he was lookin' fornnSometimes he wishes that the wish wasn't grantednWonderin' how he ever got disenchantednHoldin' on to the good life, and he can't stand itnWell, everybody leaves here empty handednnA small town beauty queen, livin' on amphediminesnHangin' in the Hollywood HillsnShe got herself famous in the City of the Angel'snWith the help of the devil and the pillsnAnd daddy was a preacher, even Jesus couldn't reach hernShe's a victim of another diseasenShe's done a lot of purgin' and she's had a lot of surgerynnA searchin' for what she needsnnSometimes she wishes that the wish wasn't grantednWonderin' how she ever got disenchantednHoldin' on to the good life, but she can't stand itnWell, everybody leaves here empty handednnWell, the cold hard truth is up to you...nnSo, if you ever wish that your wish wasn't grantednWonderin' how you ever got disenchantednHoldin' on to the good life, but you can't stand itnWell, everybody leaves here empty handednWell, empty handednEmpty handednWell, everybody leaves here empty handednEmpty handednEmpty handed
