They Call Me Hollywood (But I’m From LA) Songtext
von Andy Frasco & The U.N.

I′m not that trendy, I can't behave
Loud mouth, Birkenstocks
Flannels all day
I break the rules, don′t care what they say
They call me Hollywood but I'm from LA

They'll call you crazy, they′ll call you insane
Small town, big town
It′s all just the same
Keep breaking rules, fuck what they say
They call me Hollywood but I'm from LA

Wake up, start a riot
Live the life you′re dreaming of
Fall in love
Fall in love

They call me Hollywood but I'm from LA


Drunk on the plane
No 401k
Save my problems
For another day
Spent my last few
On a new tattoo
I still smoke squares
′Cause I think I look cool
Outdoor cat
Just chasing the birds
Say I'm from the city
But I grew up in the ′burbs
Talk that shit
Make 'em eat they words
Y'all too cool
Gotta hang with the nerds
Do what I wanna do when I wanna do it
Pardon me if I′m a little under the influence
Careful what you say these days, they be suing
Y′all too bougie
I just can't do it
My bad, my bad
I know I′m so cold
Chi-town winter got my neck all froze
You could call me crazy, call me insane
That's when the pilot said "sir, get off the plane"

Wake up, start a riot
Live the life you′re dreaming of
Fall in love
Fall in love

They call me Hollywood but I'm from LA


They call me Disco
And I′m from Chicago
Since I've been on my kiddo
I've been dancing around while they riddle
I′ve been solving violence with patience
I′ve been solving stress from my raging
I've been keeping friends that worth saving
In and out of love with my nation
Chasing bullshit away
Begging love to come stay
While ignoring the hate
What ain′t fair I create
Won't complain about things I cannot change
′Cause I've been trying to to do it my way
But my Mondays bleed into Fridays
So how can you trust in what I say?
′Cause if you ask me, I'm okay whoa

Wake up, start a riot
Live the life you're dreaming of
Fall in love
Fall in love

Go!
Wake up, start a riot
Live the life you′re dreaming of
Fall in love
Fall in love
