Billy's been driving all night, he's got a dream
Wants to live up on the big screen
Just like Jimmy Dean, he's got his jacket on, and his hair combed just right
There's a hundred just like him in audition lines tonight
I wish the walls would come down
I wish the walls would come down
I wish the walls would come down on what's left of this faketown
Rosemary's driving downtown, something that she heard from some talent scout
She's been working all day just to pay for those pictures to be done up in the right way
And it was such a shame when he said that she was just another pretty face
Said no one ever gets no where without shaking it here or there
Honey life ain't fair
I wish the walls would come down
I wish the walls would come down
I wish the walls would come down on what's left of this faketown
This faketown
Well you can fix your face, you can fix your hair
You can fix you body, with this needle here
They want to walk around like a pack of wolves
And they tell you you ain't good enough
And it ain't your fault, they say it ain't your time
You just weren't cut out for the big time
And don't you try to be yourself
'Cause things like that, they never sell
I wish the walls would come down
I wish the walls would come down on what's left of this faketown
This faketown
