Hollywood Ending

Song is from One Beat CD/LP, which is available at Kill Rock Stars.
Official lyrics come with the album; I have modified them so that the lyrics posted here
reflect what I actually hear the band singing in the song.
Because that took me lots of time and effort, please do let me know
if you would like to use the lyrics I have posted here on your site.
Or even just reference my site on yours. Thanks!

come on, come on, come on...
if you want it, you better find it (?)
come on and on and on, yeah...

you stay on 'til you're good and raw
go back and forth, a little see saw
hoping that this ride will end
but when it does you go again

can't get that monster out of my mind
she's got my hair and she's got my eyes
she follows me wherever I go
speaking for me and wearing my clothes

come on, come on, come on...
if I don't want it, it's not about me(?)
come on and on and on, yeah...

you hang on 'til your hands are sore
blistering, you still want more
you think there's something here for you
go out and buy yourself a clue

can't get that monster out of my mind
she's got my hair and she's got my eyes
she follows me wherever I go
speaking for me and wearing my clothes

in Hollywood where all the lights are low
and truth's as rare as the winter snow
she wanted a place arid as her soul
where the only job was never to grow old

when the lights are shining
will you see my skin,
or just the shell that I'm packaged in?
I've held my tongue
and I've opened my sores
if I'm less of myself
will you love me more?

come on, come on, come on...
better learn how, how to fake it(?)
come on and on and on, yeah...

(not sure what carrie says at the end here)
