Hollywood in 1938

Lyrics

[INTRO]
In Hollywood, where the stars align,
Eighty-six years back, oh what a time,
Glimmering lights and laughter in the air,
Step into the glamour, let down your hair.

[VERSE 1]
There’s Katharine Hepburn, fierce and bold,
With Hugh Herbert laughing, stories unfold.
Ned Sparks frowning, yet his heart still beats,
While Groucho smokes and Harpo skips the beats.

[CHORUS]
Hollywood dreams, oh the golden age,
Where the silver screen writes every page,
Stars in the night, let their voices ring,
In the heart of the film, we feel the magic they bring.

[VERSE 2]
Charles Laughton sails through mutiny's tale,
Spencer Tracy's courage will never pale.
Freddie Bartholomew, young and brave,
In Captain's Courageous, the ocean they pave.

[CHORUS]
Hollywood dreams, oh the golden age,
Where the silver screen writes every page,
Stars in the night, let their voices ring,
In the heart of the film, we feel the magic they bring.

[BRIDGE]
W. C. Fields with a nose so grand,
A penguin strutting, cigar in hand.
Charlie McCarthy sways to Edgar’s song,
The laughter erupts, it just feels so strong.

[VERSE 3]
Stan and Ollie, a comedic pair,
Bringing chuckles, lifting despair.
Cab Calloway, dancing, oh what a show,
Minnie the Moocher in a vibrant flow.

[CHORUS]
Hollywood dreams, oh the golden age,
Where the silver screen writes every page,
Stars in the night, let their voices ring,
In the heart of the film, we feel the magic they bring.

[VERSE 4]
Fats Waller's fingers dancing on keys,
Clark Gable’s charm in the Southern breeze.
Fred Astaire taps with a rhythm divine,
Joe E. Brown grins, with a big mouth, oh so fine!

[CHORUS]
Hollywood dreams, oh the golden age,
Where the silver screen writes every page,
Stars in the night, let their voices ring,
In the heart of the film, we feel the magic they bring.
