Lyrics
I lived in LA but I don’t anymore You're on the freeway, you gotta drive everywhere Got out of LA and I went to New York I lived in LA, I don't live in LA anymore LA was a desert A hundred years ago Cactci and shrubbery and sand and some lizards Humans came along heads full of ideas Water and magic engineers and wizards I only love LA from above LA's only right for me when it's night LA's only right I crashed in the north I landed in Koreatown Did a stint in Los Feliz And back up the 5 Bills piled up The collectors were hounding me I'm lucky that I even got out alive I remember the day I rolled into town Car full of stuff heart full of ambition It wasn't long till I was struck down Wool over my eyes I lost sight of my mission
