King of the Silver Screen - Alice Cooper, California Boys' Choir, Douglas Neslund

By day I’m a workin' man

Layin' bricks or layin' pipe

I don’t stand out in a crowd

Just look like one of the guys

Little do they know

When I’m alone in bed at night

I become the King of the Silver Screen

I stare at the ceiling there;

I know where I belong

I two step with Fred Astaire or

Fighting old King Kong

I can be any hero at all;

Zorro or Don Juan

I know I’m the King of the Silver Screen

Hollywood movies keep flashin' across my mind

I could’ve been Valentino if I was born in another time

I might be solving a case or swinging from a tree

Share a joke with Crosby and Hope

We’re such good friends, you see

Even dazzle the Academy with my versatility

'Cause I’m the King of the Silver Screen

Hollywood movies keep flashin' across my mind

I could’ve been Errol Flynn

If I was born in another time

I could’ve been a star

I could’ve been a star

I could’ve played that part

But Hollywood movies keep flashin' before my eyes

I could’ve been Greta Garbo

If I was born in another time

I wake the very next day

Go on back to work

I’m just a face in a crowd

Another average jerk

And all the guys on the building site look at me flirt

Because I’m the Queen of the Silver

Yes, I’m the Queen of the Silver Screen

I admit it to all my fellow workers

I don’t care any more.

I’m tired of closets

I’m gonna eat my makeup for lunch today

Just stop hittin' me again.

All right guys?

I’m going to Hollywood to be a starlet

I know I’m 240 pounds and play center

For the Detroit Lions

I don’t care any more

I like makeup and dresses and Hollywood

I’ll make somebody a great little wife

«Frankly, Scarlet, I don’t give a damn.»
