"The World Began In Eden And Ended In Los Angeles" lyrics
"The World Began In Eden And Ended In Los Angeles"
Don't you think it's time that we were leaving?
For another chance, another place to start
Desperate ones that went across the ocean
And they wondered how it would all turn out
If you have to beg or steal or borrow
Welcome to Los Angeles, City of Tomorrow
They landed on the coldest of the colonies
But still they wanted better than the rich
They built highways on the houses of the homesteads
It happened that way moving west
If you have to beg or steal or borrow
Welcome to Los Angeles, City of Tomorrow
So this is where the Renaissance has led to
And we will be the only ones to know
So take a drive and breathe the air of ashes
That is, if you need a place to go
If you have to beg or steal or borrow
Welcome to Los Angeles, City of Tomorrow
City of Tomorrow, City of Tomorrow

They Might Be Giants - "Don't Let's Start" Don't don't don't let's start
This is the worst part
Could believe for all the world
That you're my precious little girl

I've got a weak heart
And I don't get around...
Nick Drake - "Fly" Please give me a second grace,
Please give me a second face,
I've fallen far down, the first time around,
Now I just sit on the ground in your way
Now, if it's time for recompense for what's done,...
Donovan - "Season Of The Witch" When I look out my window
Many sights to see
And when I look in my window
So many different people to be

Arlo Guthrie - "The Motorcycle Song" I don't want a pickle
I just wanna ride on my morotcycle
And I don't want a tickle
I'd rather ride on my motorcycle

It was late last...
Fred Neil - "Bleecker & MacDougal" I was standing on the corner
Of the Bleecker and MacDougal
Wondering which way to go
I've got a woman down in Coconut Grove
And you know she love me so
I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Now don't you...
