Lou Reed - Starlight lyrics

Starlight open wide, starlight open up your door This is New York calling with movies from the street Movies with real people, what you get is what you see Starlight open wide, Andy's Cecil B. DeMille Come on L. A. give us a call We've got superstars who talk, they'll do anything at all Ingrid, Viva, Little Joe, Baby Jane, and Edie S. But you better call us soon before we talk ourselves to d**h Starlight open wide everybody is a star Split screen 8-hour movies We've got color we've got sound Won't you recognize us, we're everything you hate Andy loves old Hollywood movies, he'll scare you hypocrites to d**h You know that shooting up's for real That person who's screaming, that's the way he really feels We're all improvising, five movies in a week If Hollywood doesn't call us - we'll be sick Starlight open wide Do to movies what you did to art Can you see beauty in ugliness, or is it playing in the dirt There are stars out on the New York streets We want to capture them on film But if no one wants to see them We'll make another and another Starlight let us in that magic room We've all dreamt of Hollywood, it can't happen too soon Won't you give us a million dollars the rent is due Andy will give you 2 movies and a painting Starlight open wide!
