Alice Cooper - King Of the Silver Screen Lyrics

Lost Classic!!!

If I ever saw this live at an Alice concert, all my sins would be washed away and I could die clean.

I was surprised enough back in 2011 during the Nightmare 2 tour when he played " it's Hot Tonight" from this album.

Would not be out-of-place in the Rocky Horror Picture Show! I could see Tim Curry crooning this in leather n lace!

HUNTER & WAGNER KICK ASS

Oddly enough, this is my favorite Alice Cooper album. ;)

mine too.....some people can not see the talent..

and mine. its criminally underrated and is a brilliant album that more Cooper fans should listen to, instead of schools out or trash or hey stoopid

First cooper album stuck inside forever!

Tongue and cheek slapstick,great song

Check out GLITTER DOGS. New music. Self recorded and produced 70's style rock.

Song: EVERYONE WANTS TO BE COOL

Alice's career took a nose dive after this if I remember. People, at the time, took Alice's lyrics as the proof of his degeneracy, when, in fact, he was calling out the scumbags in the film/music industry. Some people just don't get irony.

I need to find this on CD.

I love this song so much man

"King Of the Silver Screen"

By day I'm a workin' man,
layin' bricks or layin' pipe.
I don't stand out in a crowd;
just look like one of the guys.
Little do they know,
when I'm alone in bed at night,
I become the King of the Silver Screen.
I stare at the ceiling there;
I know where I belong.
I two step with Fred Astaire or
fighting old King Kong.
I can be any hero at all;
Zorro or Don Juan.
I know I'm the King of the Silver Screen.
Hollywood movies keep flashin' across my mind.
I could've been Valentino if I was born in another time.
I might be solving a case or swinging from a tree. Share a joke with Crosby and Hope; we're such good friends, you see.
Even dazzle the Academy with my versatility.
'Cause I'm the King of the Silver Screen.
Hollywood movies keep flashin' across my mind.
I could've been Errol Flynn
if I was born in another time.
I could've been a star.
I could've been a star.
I could've played that part.
But Hollywood movies keep flashin' before my eyes.
I could've been Greta Garbo
if I was born in another time.
I wake the very next day
go on back to work.
I'm just a face in a crowd;
another average jerk.
And all the guys on the building site look at me flirt.
Because I'm the Queen of the Silver.
Recitation...
Yes, I'm the Queen of the Silver Screen.
I admit it to all my fellow workers.
I don't care any more. I'm tired of closets.
I'm gonna eat my makeup for lunch today.
Just stop hittin' me again. All right guys?
I'm going to Hollywood to be a starlet.
I know I'm 240 pounds and play center
for the Detroit Lions.
I don't care any more.
I like makeup and dresses and Hollywood.
I'll make somebody a great little wife.
"Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a damn."

could have been ERROL FLYNN, IF I WAS BORN IN ANOTHER TIME .......
