There she stands with her red dress on
Looking like a movie star
In this city of smoke and mirrors
It doesn't matter who you really are
But she's a player
Living a life that she found in her magazines
Where perception is all that you need
Nothing much is quite as it seems
In LA
Rodeo Drive and limousines
Nothing spared in a world of more
And lost among so many things
Is what she’s really searching for
But she’s fighter
Who’s learned to survive in a world of make believe
Where persistence is all that you need
Nothing much is quite as it seems in LA
In LA
There she is with her red dress on
Looking like a movie star
In this city of smoke and mirrors
You’re never sure who you really are
But she’s a fighter
Who’s learned to survive in a world of broken dreams
Where perception is all that you need
Nothing much is quite as it seems in LA
In LA
