Lyrics

Well she lives all alone in a house by a school, She wears fur coats and hats and old fashioned jewels, And her one aim in life to be on the screen: Top billing with Vali, her favourite dream. So once a year Granny takes a trip; Always first class and she's well-equipped: For the movie auditions in Hollywood town She always turns up, but she's always turned down. Well one day on the screen Granny's bound to be seen: If she turns up again she's bound to find fame, So Granny my dear we all wish you the best, And know that you'll find your happiness ... So once a year Granny takes a trip; Always first class and she's well-equipped: For the movie auditions in Hollywood town She always turns up, but she's always turned down.
