when canyons ruled the city (Album Version)

歌詞

Laurel was a girl I knew, made of dirt and stone Pretty hip in younger years but now, she sits alone With a hundred thousand architectural disasters That she calls homes And Beverly Glen was pretty, all the rich boys loved her curves She tried to get the credit sometimes more than she deserved Like those cheesy 80's movies epitomized and All things, we'd come to know Beach wood was a Boheme from the sexy 60's scene Grew up East of West Hollywood and somewhere in between All the madness laurel puts up with but somehow Always tolerates a scene And Nicols, you know he had a way with the performing arts A and R guys having cookouts on his back with super stars But it had some nasty habits and some potholes To cover up this drama queen Sometimes, Beach Wood yelled at Laurel on the terms of selling out Then laurel yelled at Beverly for not knowing what life's about With her trust fund friends and family, it felt just like An earthquake when she'd shouts And Silver Lake just stood there with her nose up in the air Pushing up her horn rimmed glasses saying, ‽I don't fucking care 'Bout the drama all you idiots are buying and selling, leasing, up there” And San Fernando was a struggling actor, drove a deli truck On the sets of porno movies, he was just trying to make a buck While his pilot was in escrow, he dreamed of dating Beverly one day
