Lyrics
The great unwashed awoke today with the sun perched high above LA
Poppy's sighing high to breathe the air above chokes all the trees
Streets in mid -dilapitation a hopeless garnished situation
Tourists feed infatuations blending with the animation
I may not say but I can see that things aren't what they use to be
Too bad I couldn't buy a beach a big one way beyond their reach
But that would be a bit unfair to leave you in the cold out there
Another day in paradise if I didn't know I'd say it's nice
