Empty bottles on the floor
Party’s over, thank the lord
Watching these four walls ’round me shrinking
It’s so quiet, I can hear myself think
When
Glitz and glamour on cam
Singin’ in La La Land
Accidentally made a name
Pawn on every chess board
Used ’til they get bored
Smile when they yell, “Checkmate”
Lately I’ve been on my own (yeah, on my own, yeah yeah)
I knew you havin’ fun with me (with me, with me, oh no)
When I’m nearby, you’ll know
Like, hold on
And when will I see you? Yeah, yeah
Like, when will I see you?
Can you hear me loud and clear?
Glitz and glamour on cam
Singin’ in La La Land
Accidentally made a name
Pawn on every chess board
Used ’til they get bored
Smile when they yell, “Checkmate”
