los angeles - philip labes lyrics

[verse 1]
i packed a bag at just eighteen
my eyes alive with hopes and dreams
of music and the silver screen
to the prettiest, wittiest, sh*ttiest town i’ve ever seen

[chorus]
los angeles
you bright and beautiful town
where the dog*walkers want to be famous
and the mayor’s a clown
where it takes twenty minutes for folks to say
“where are they now?”
still, the magic is hard to resist
of los angeles
where the weather is fine
but you won’t feel the heat
or the sweetness on sunset and vine
where careers start when you’re born
and end at twenty*nine
still, the magic is hard to resist

[verse 2]
every day you spend in la
at least the sun’s gonna shine
even the broke have the beach and a smoke
so you’re having a pretty good time

[chorus]
los angeles
meet a friend hit the bar
you can hike to the moon
you can step on the stars
you can live half your life
sitting at a red light in your car
still, the magic is hard to resist

los angeles
make it big when you break
where the people are plastic
and the burgers are fake
and everyone’s dreaming all day
even though they’re awake
still, the magic is hard to resist
[bridge]
schemers, and beamers
and pre*teen streamers
and studios on every side
fast cars, and p*rn stars
and hollywood boulevard
and accidents and managers
and cameras and cannabis

[chorus]
los angeles
oh, you’re so fine
full of people who worry
that somehow they’re falling behind
every day is the same
and everyone’s out of their mind

[outro]
still, the magic is hard to resist
for the folks who are lost or adrift
maybe here we can prove we exist
los angeles
