lyrics

They loved the star lost in light
But you looked into your darkness
Started walking your own way
To be yourself
To see yourself
Beyond the velvet carpet

Venus at the drive-in
Platinum smile next door
You radiate
You scintillate
(And) the crowds want more

Gave away your jewels
In a brown paper bag
Nothing had a price tag
You cast your pearls
Before the swine
At Hollywood and Vine


Venus at the drive-in
Platinum smile next door
You scintillate
You radiate
(And) the crowds want more

When your heart was almost shattered
For all the hopes they were taking
Did your laughter mingle with
Power minds
Dollar signs
You need another line

Venus at the drive-in
Platinum smile next door
You scintillate
You radiate
And the crowd still wants more
And the crowd still wants more
