Default The Triumverate

I like lyrics threads...so fooey.

Fear
I Love Livin' In The City
Verse 1:
My house smells just like a zoo
It's chock full of [censored] and puke.
Cockroaches on the walls...
Grass growing on my balls...
Oh well I'm so clean cut
and I just want to [censored] some [censored]!

Chorus:
I love living in the city
I love living in the city

Verse 2:
I've spent my whole life in the city
Where junk is king and the air smells [censored]
People puking everywhere--
Piles of blood, scabs, and hair.
Bodies wasted and disease,
young people dieing on the streets...
But the suburban scumbags they dont care...
they just get fat and die their hair!

Chorus:
I love living in the city
I love living in the city

Conversely...

"Beverly Hills" Circle Jerks

Beverly Hills, century city
everything's so nice and pretty
all the people look the same
don't they know they're so damn lame

there she goes
three piece suit
spandex pants
cowboy boots

I don't know what i'm gonna do
I don't know what i'm gonna do
maybe i'll have to move from

Beverly Hills, century city
everything's so nice and pretty
All the people look the same
don't they know they're so damn lame

there she goes
three piece suit
spandex pants
fiorucci too
beverly hills, century city!
BUT ALSO:

X, LA
she, had to leave
los angeles
all her toys wore out in black and her boys had too
she started to hate every [censored] and jew
every mexican that gave her a lotta s--t
every homosexual and the idle rich
idle rich
she had to get out, get out
get out, get out
get out, get out

she gets confused
flying over the dateline her hands turn red
cause the days change at night
change in an instant
the days change at night
change in an instant

she had to leave
los angeles
she found it hard to say goodbye to her own best friend
she bought a clock on hollywood blvd the day she left
it felt sad, it felt sad
it felt saaaaaaad
she had to get out, get out
get out, get out
get out, get out

she gets confused
flying over the dateline her hands turn red
cause the days change at night
change in an instant
the days change at night
change in an instant
the days change at night
change in an instant

I've never spent more than a day in LA, but it sounds just lovely!

I live in the land of the freeways
Home of the smog and traffic

The sun and the air
The mountains and sea
Streams and palm trees

The valleys...
The canyons...
The mountains...
The beaches...

Hollywood, downtown, the valley
Are all places you should see
The city at night, the city so bright
a short time away a campfire sight

The missions...
The mansions...
The farmlands...
Punk rock bands...

People come from all over
to work and live in the sun
It's always so nice
my own paradise

The desert , the snow
So many places to go

The people...
The places...
The weather...
The faces...

That's for me

Pack up all your dishes.
Make note of all good wishes.
Say goodbye to the landlord for me.
That son of a bitch has always bored me.
Throw out them LA papers
And that moldy box of vanilla wafers.
Adios to all this concrete.
Gonna get me some dirt road back street

If I can just get off of this LA freeway
Without getting killed or caught
I'd be down that road in a cloud of smoke
For some land that I ain't bought bought bought

Here's to you old skinny Dennis
Only one I think I will miss
I can hear that old bass singing
Sweet and low like a gift you're bringin'
Play it for me just one more time now
Got to give it all we can now
I beleive everything your saying
Just keep on, keep on playing

Chorus

And you put the pink card in the mailbox
Leave the key in the old front door lock
They will find it likely as not
I'm sure there's somethin' we have forgot
Oh Susanna, don't you cry, babe
Love's a gift that's surely handmade
We've got something to believe in
Dontcha' think it's time we're leavin'

Chorus
