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

They got one in South Patagonia

I want to love in Los Angeles

Not the one in Los Angeles

They got a bunch down in Moleville

They got a bunch more still

I want tolive in Los Angeles

Not the one in Los Angeles

They got one in twenty-five to five

Works just like a beehive

I want to live in Los Angeles

Not the one in Los Angeles

Counting helicopters on 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
