I met a man
|
He was a good man
|
Sailing and shoring
|
Dancing the beta can-can
|
Making me foreign
|
Oh yeah
|
|
I want to live in Los Angeles
|
Not the one in Los Angeles
|
No, not the one in South California
|
The got one in South Patagonia
|
|
I want to live in Los Angeles
|
Not the one in Los Angeles
|
They got a bunch down in Moleville
|
They got a bunch more still
|
|
I want to live in Los Angeles
|
Not the one is Los Angeles
|
They got one in twenty-five two five
|
With a church like a beehive
|
|
I want to live in Los Angeles
|
Not the one in Los Angeles
|
Counting helicopters on a Saturday night
|
The symphony of the fair light
|
|
I hear them saying Los Angeles
|
In all the black and white movies
|
And if you think they star-spangled us
|
How come we say Los Angeleez?
|
|
I'll wait in Los Angeles
|
I'll wait in the pouring sun
|
No way
|
For not anyone
|
No way
|
|
I met a man
|
He was a good man
|
Sailing and shoring
|
He got a betatron, man
|
Talking that foreign
|
Oh yeah
|
|
I'll wait in Los Angeles
|
I'll wait in the pouring sun
|
No way
|
For not anyone
|
No way
|
