Lyrics

I will never find love in Los Angeles,
because I'm pretty sure there's no such thing
and even if there is, I think I probably couldn't handle it,
so I'll abandon it, Los Angeles, and sing.

I can't even believe
I'm rubbing elbows down on Melrose
with some people that I never thought I'd meet.
But where in the city of angels
is anyone who's able to inspire someone like me?

Los Angeles,
I see them everywhere I turn,
another babe in a Mercedes,
who's just waiting for a bridge like mine to burn.
Why in the world is this place
so unbearably fake and when will I ever learn?

I will never find love in Los Angeles,
because I'm pretty sure there's no such thing
and even if there is, I think I probably couldn't handle it,
so I'll abandon it, Los Angeles, and sing.

And even though it puts a strain on my voice
every day, there's really nothing I can do.

I will never find love in Los Angeles,
because I'm pretty sure there's no such thing
and even if there is, I think I probably couldn't handle it,
so I'll abandon it, Los Angeles, and
sing about the California girls,
although I must inform ya,
I can barely stand to see
my heart out in the sand.
It's the intoxicating notion
that this God-forsaken ocean's
gonna swallow a man like me.
Los Angeles, We'll See.
