lyrics

How far I am from L.A.
I ain’t living in a place by the bay
Here it’s so sad and grey and much less glamourous
No endless summer nor cocktails by the ocean
No private beach at the door of my mansion
I can only smell the stinky scent ot the warm pavement

Writing songs with my old mates just to escape
The blurry pictures of a bleak industrial landscape

So my vision is all grey
Then I dream about L.A.
But I ain’t gone away

Drinking cheap beer in my favorite bar
None of my friend’s some kind of superstar
There’s no fancy club to ease my mind
I stay up all night
Wondering if I’ll see the lights
And lost myself in the city of Angels

Playing rock’n’roll in a shity rehearsal space
Driving miles in a dirty tour van

So my vision is all grey
I always dream about L.A.
And hope someday I’ll get away

Basically the band draws from the late 70’s power pop forgotten hits like Nerves, Plimsouls Real Kids, Phil Seymour
