Don`t Mean Nothing — текст песни (Richard Marx)

Welcome to the big time. You`re bound to be a star
And even if you don`t go all the way, I know that you`ll go far
This race is for rats, It can turn you upside down
Ain`t no one you can count on in this sleazy little town
Oh, no
Lots of promises in the dark
But don`t you open your heart

Chorus
Cause it don`t mean nothin`
The words that they say
Don`t mean nothin`
These games that people play
No, it don`t mean nothin`
No victim, no crime
It don`t mean nothin`
Till you sign it on that dotted line

The director smiles as you walk in the door
He says, "I love your work, babe"
But you`re just not what we`re looking for
It`s never what but who it is you know
So easy to get stuck in all that California snow
Take a good look around and you`ll find
People tryin` to mess with your mind

Repeat Chorus

Hollywood can be so lonely
Make you the winner of a losing fight
But the party is never over
Cause stars are always shining
Doesn`t matter if it`s day or night

The producer says, "let me change a line or two"
And a little bit of something can look awfully good to you And you want to scream, but you gotta keep it all inside. When you`re trying to make a living,
There ain`t no such thing as pride, no
Lot of promises in the dark
But don`t you open your heart

Repeat Chorus

It don`t mean nothing at all..
