lyrics

Only In L.A.

Only in L.A. would they complain about the jacaranda trees
Purple falling leaves that leave your shiny B.M.W. unclean
Alarms are always going off, the Mockingbird it changes its old song
The desert lakes are filling up, the bodies floating down from Forrest Lawn

Only in this place would choirs ring from all the air-conditioning
Humming like cidadas or the beasts that used to roam these very streets
This is just a Disneyland, we need to score to keep the dream this big
I’m growing larger than this old apartment, I’m a star in the making

I’m your billboard
I’m your hiding place
I’m that face upon the bus that’s moving people even further from their dreams

Only in the space of days could this place turn a beggar to a king
From singing in the streets to burning bright on everybody’s phone and screen
Screaming “go and take me, I am yours and you will always be my friend!”
Slaughtering the lamb so that the agents and execs get their percent

I’m your fake war
I’m your tidal wave
I’m the friend that you relate to more than anyone who’s ev en touched your face

Only in L.A….
