[00:06.95]There is a city by the sea
[00:11.92]A gentle company
[00:15.39]I don't suppose you want to
[00:20.03]And as it tells its sorry tale
[00:25.64]In harrowing detail
[00:29.07]Its hollowness will haunt you
[00:32.64]Its streets and boulevards
[00:38.17]Orphans and oligarchs it hears
[00:43.04]A plaintive melody
[00:47.85]Truncated symphony
[00:51.06]An ocean's garbled vomit on the shore
[00:55.47]Los Angeles, I'm yours
[01:01.10]
[01:10.74]Oh ladies, pleasant and demure
[01:15.52]Sallow-cheeked and sure
[01:18.96]I can see your undies
[01:24.85]And all the boys you drag about
[01:29.12]An empty fallow fount
[01:32.29]From Saturdays to Mondays
[01:37.67]You hill and valley crowd
[01:41.82]Hanging your trousers down at heel
[01:47.10]This is the realest thing
[01:51.10]As ancient choirs sing
[01:54.07]A dozen blushing cherubs wheel above
[01:58.70]Los Angeles, my love
[02:03.64]
[02:53.52]Oh what a rush of ripe elan
[02:57.43]Languor on divans
[03:01.11]Dalliant and dainty
[03:06.61]But oh, the smell of burnt *******
[03:10.41]The dolor and decay
[03:13.97]It only makes me cranky
[03:20.00]Oh great calamity
[03:22.85]Ditch of iniquity and tears
[03:28.73]How I abhor this place
[03:32.81]Its sweet and bitter taste
[03:35.59]Has left me wretched, retching on all fours
[03:40.09]Los Angeles, I'm yours
