Intro
Verse
Lonely - lonely - lonely - lonely
God knows you're ambitious, See you push so hard
You want to get to the top of the heap from Sunset Boulevard
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Chorus
'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby it's hot!
It's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby it's hot!
They're going to tear your soul away
Verse
Theater is deserted and the boards are bare
You're next up for the reading and you're feeling scared
Oh, but you really want the part so bad
Yeah, go on show them how a star should act
Chorus
Yeah, it's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby it's hot!
It's lonely, lonely at the top
Baby it's hot!
They're going to tear your soul away
Instrumental
Break
You could be a doctor, you could be a nurse
There's no time to rehearse
You work as a waitress, you clean up the bar
But soon you'll be noticed, you'll be a star!

Verse
You get your nomination, you're heart's beating fast
Yes and the winner is you! You won the prize at last!
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Oh, it leads small-town girls astray
Chorus
'Cause it's lonely, lonely at the top
Yeah, baby it's hot!
They're going to strip your soul away
It's lonely, lonely, it's lonely
You get hungry, you get thirsty
You know you get thirsty.... FADE OUT
