Letra de Lulu

[Verso 1]
They said that Hollywood was
Never gonna be the same without you
Still, you’re gone

[Verso 2]
How could we forget that face
And all that silver, flickering grace
That died with the silent age?
When everybody knew your name;
They all knew your name

[Verso 3]
Born wild like a prairie flower
She was sown by the wind and blown for miles
Kansas couldn’t keep the child

Hell-bound for the Great White Way
For the tawdry-bawdy burlesque stage
And Wichita was miles and miles away

[Verso 4]
Everybody knew your name
Everybody knew your name
They knew your name

[Verso 5]
So you burned the candle
Burned it at both ends
So love ends in scandal
You burned it brief; you burned it bright
And the light in your immortal eyes
Is the light that will never die

[Verso 6]
Christened in straight-up gin
Pandora was born in Weimar Berlin
And that was the rise before the fall!

[Verso 7]
Everybody sat in the dark, dark, black as night
Everybody wanted to go where the light was so bright
And your shining face was gonna lead the way

[Verso 8]
Homecoming like a heroine-bride
But the honeymoon was over before you arrived
And now they all cursed your name
Everybody cursed your name

[Verso 9]
Cold winds of Gotham howled
And the princess pawned her celluloid crown
In the glass castle walls

Where nobody knew your name
Nobody knew your name
