She may be beautiful
Sexy from her head down to her toes
Everybody's favorite centerfold
The girl that everybody wants to know
What I've been to, what's her secret identity
What she was doing behind the scenes
All the dirty lies and filthy schemes

Even though she would go
And I don't know why
But Hollywood set me up
Even though she would go
And I don't know why
But Hollywood set me up
She took control of me
So I couldn't see

She said she can't undo all that she was untrue
That girl I thought I knew
Never expected, babe
She set me up, she set me up, she set me up
I don't know why, but Hollywood set me up

Girl sitting next to me
Is she asking can she live with me?
I'm like, can't be coming on to me
My girl is waiting on me
Whispers in my ear and she's like
Baby can we disappear tonight?
Can't you see to the right
My girl is staring me right in my eyes
Even though she would go
And I don't know why
But Hollywood set me up
Even though she would go
And I don't know why
But Hollywood set me up
She took control of me
So I couldn't see

He said she can't undo all that she was untrue
That girl I thought I knew
Never expected, babe
She set me up, she set me up, she set me up
I don't know why, but Hollywood set me up

Spotlights left, right
Going to her head
Closing the curtain
Your show is over, no more
Take your act and leave

I don't know why
But Hollywood set me up
She took control of me
So I couldn't see
He said she can't undo all that she was untrue
That girl I thought I knew
Never expected, babe
She set me up, she set me up, she set me up
I don't know why, but Hollywood set me up
