Welcome to the big time. You're bound to be a star And even if you don't go all the way, I know that you'll go far This race is for rats, It can turn you upside down Ain't no one you can count on in this sleazy little town Oh, no Lots of promises in the dark But don't you open your heart
Chorus Cause it don't mean nothin' The words that they say Don't mean nothin' These games that people play No, it don't mean nothin' No victim, no crime It don't mean nothin' Till you sign it on that dotted line
The director smiles as you walk in the door He says, "I love your work, babe" But you're just not what we're looking for It's never what but who it is you know So easy to get stuck in all that California snow Take a good look around and you'll find People tryin' to mess with your mind
Cause it don't mean nothin' The words that they say Don't mean nothin' These games that people play No, it don't mean nothin' No victim, no crime It don't mean nothin' Till you sign it on that dotted line
Hollywood can be so lonely Make you the winner of a losing fight But the party is never over Cause stars are always shining Doesn't matter if it's day or night
The producer says, "let me change a line or two" And a little bit of something can look awfully good to you And you want to scream, but you gotta keep it all inside. When you're trying to make a living, There ain't no such thing as pride, no Lot of promises in the dark But don't you open your heart Cause it don't mean nothin' The words that they say Don't mean nothin' These games that people play No, it don't mean nothin' No victim, no crime It don't mean nothin' Till you sign it on that dotted line
