They said that Hollywood was never gonna be the same without you
Still, you're gone
How could we forget that face and all that silver flickering grace
That died with the silent age?
And everybody knew your name
They all knew your name
Born wild like a pretty flower
She was sewn by the wind and blown for miles
Kansas couldn't keep the child
Hell-bound for the great white wave
For the tall ---- body, burlesque stage, and
Wichita was miles and miles away
Everybody knew your name
Everybody knew your name
They knew your name
So you burn the candle
Burned it at both ends
So love ends in scandal
Burned it brief (?)
You burned it bright (?)
And the light in your immortal eyes
Is the light that'll never die
Christened in straight-up ----
And ---- was born in ----
And that was the rise before the fall
Everybody sat in the dark, dark, blackest night
Everybody wanted to go, but the light was so bright
And your shiny face (?)
Was gonna lead the way
Home-coming like a heroine ---- (?)
But the honeymoon was over before you arrived
And now they all cursed your name
Everybody cursed your name
Cold winds of Gotham howled
And the princess pawned a celluloid crown in the glass...castle walls (?)
And nobody knew your name
Nobody knew your name
