The gentleman's in the lane

spinning his hat on a cane

stepping out, out for a change



good morning all, it's a beautiful day



the general's are winning a war

seemed suicidal before

you come along, now

I'll protect you long as you stay



LA

morning had to come

I'd be walking in the sun

living in the day

but last night i was about to throw it all away



if patience started a band

I'd be her biggest fan

look at me, I'm talking to you

I don't want the lead in your play



The star's just a part of the scene

the gentelman in green

paying off out on the street

I can't go home, it's not on my way



LA

things I'd never done, cars parked in the sun

living in the day

but last night i was about to throw it all away

last night i was about to throw it all away

last night i was about to throw it all away

last night i was about to throw it all away
