LA Songtext
von Elliott Smith

The gentleman′s in the lane
Spinning his hat on a cane
Stepping out, out for change
Good morning all, it's a beautiful day

The generals are winning a war
Seemed suicidal before
You came along, now
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 gentleman in green
Paying off out on the street
I can′t go home, it's not on my way

LA
Things are 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
