[bad word] s) fine and mellow slippin' down the street
 Free and easy smile for everyone she meets
 Everybody's hangin' back but now the secret's out
 She just came by to tell us what it's all about
 There's a nation waitin' for [bad word]  of the Lord
 With the dreamers and the schemers out
 on Sunset Boulevard
 And sugar life is hard
 Out on Sunset Boulevard

 Best dressed or hard pressed no matter who you are
 Dependin' on how the cards fall, anyone can be a star
 But Iife is not a screenplay - it's a battle for your soul
 You must be very carelul how you choose to play your role
 Really ain't no tellin' what your Spirit's headin' toward
 You see he rests uneasy out on Sunset Boulevard
 And mama Iife is sho' 'nuff hard
 Out on Sunset Boulevard

 Now, Jesus, Peace be with him, said,
 "The [bad word] will set you free"
 [bad word] and doubt go hand-in-hand in our society
 Everybody's wonderin' what the beast will have to say
 From the steps of [bad word] to the flats in East L. A.
 There's an angel waitin' with Fire and the Sword
 With the hipsters and the tlpsters out on Sunset Boulevard
 And Ine is sho' 'nuff hard
 Out on Sunset Boulevard
