So, what's your dream?
My dream?
Well, I'm a dancer, singer, model, and actress.
And I just moved to Los Angeles from Boston.
Like, I was pretty big in Memphis, but out here it's like you're [A] a dime a dozen.
[B] I don't know.
I don't really, I [A] like, I don't really have the dream of being a star.
It's more just, I like being me.
You know?
[Bb] Yeah, when I first got out [Eb] here, I was like, really green.
And then you just got out of [A] college and I was like, oh, you know, six months to a year, I'm gonna be [Eb] huge.
And, you know, it's been [N] six years now.
What the hell?
You know, I came here, you know, I came here in the early 90s to try to get a band together.

Singing by the hook, they will find a way to trip it.
Everybody's looking for a free give and gotta get [Dm] away.
