James Dean lyrics

He couldn't keep you safe if he tried,

but when he let you see in his liquid eyes

it became a crime - take him away.

Doesn't know how to love, doesn't know how to win.

He only knows that he can't be taken in

but he's on the road, he's livin' in sin.

Just as it seems, he's another James Dean.

Stayin' up, he's restless through the night

while Santa Monica signs are fading.

He's got his blood and he's looking for a fight.

Another Hollywood hero's baby.

You wouldn't like him if he stayed.

A hero's dying every day.

Maryanne wasn't fitting in with his lies.

Learned more from a fool than she learned from the wise.

Crying out to the skies - take him away.

He's been given hands to destroy the world.

He's been given a taste to destroy all the girls.

Given too many skills, a threat to be seen.

Oh, he's another James Dean.

Stayin' up, he's restless through the night

while Santa Monica signs are fading.

He's got his blood and he's looking for a fight.

Another Hollywood hero's baby.

Ridin' strong it feels like he belongs

while Santa Monica's dreams are sleepin'.

Hush now, he'll always carry on.

He's a Hollywood hero's baby.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

(Yeah, yeah...)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Only the gentle are ever really strong.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Stayin' up, he's restless through the night

while Santa Monica signs are fading.

He's got his blood and he's looking for a fight.

Another Hollywood hero's baby.

Ridin' strong, it feels like he belongs

while Santa Monica's dreams are sleepin'.

Hush now, he'll always carry on.

He's a Hollywood hero's baby.
