lyrics

La La Land

Everybody wants
To be a big star,
When you're living in La La Land
Where you're judged
By the size of your car,
And the color of your two-bit tan.

Where your plumber is a drummer
And your waiter an actor too.
Your postman writes
His script at night
Justa waitin' for his big breakthrough.

We're living in La La Land .
We're living in La La Land.
Where the sun is really groovy
And they're making lots of movies,
La lalalala la land.

Well, I was just another soul child
When I moved to
The city of dreams.
The people would show me
Their crocodile smiles,
And size me up
With their schemes.

You could say that I was clueless,
Straight from my folks' backyard.
Pretty soon I was
Completely shoeless,
And charging up my credit card.

So I took every job I could muster
And I barely could pay my bills.
The sign on the hill
Kind of lost its luster,
And i just couldn't find a thrill.

But just before I hit the road
For the four day drive back south.
Made up my mind
That i could not go
And decided to hang out.

Well, the relentless rent
Kept coming,
And I didn't have too much choice
In my free time
I just kept on strumming,
And finding my own voice.

I was just another dreaming fool
With a day job and a plan
And slowly then
My sound turned true
And I found a funky little band.
