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 live in los angeles
not the one in los angeles
they got a bunch down in moleville
they got a bunch more still
i want to live in los angeles
not the one in los angeles
they got one in twenty-five two 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 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
