"Century City" lyrics
"Century City"
Sometimes I wanna leave you
Sometimes I wanna go
Right back where I came from
Back where I belong
But, it never lasts for too long
Always goes away
Well I still don't look for reasons
That's much too hard these days
Why worry about the rain?
Why worry about the thunder?
Honey Century City's got everything covered
Well, your mama gave you lovin'
Mama held you near
Baby, mama can't do nothin'
Baby, mama just ain't here
And you can pretend all you want to
But that won't work no more
No you can't run back to daddy
Yeah you tried that once before
Why worry about your father?
Why worry about your mother?
Honey Century City's got everything covered
We're gonna live in Century City
Go ahead and give in, Century City
Like modern men, modern girls
We're gonna live in the modern world
We're gonna live in Century City
Go ahead and give in, Century City
Like modern men, modern girls
We're gonna live in the modern world
Sometimes I get discouraged
Sometimes I feel so down
Sometimes I get so worried
But I don't know what about
But it works out in the long run
Always goes away
And I've come now to accept it
It's a reoccurring phase
Don't worry about the rain
Don't worry about the thunder
Honey Century City's got everything covered
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City
We're gonna live in Century City

The Cars - "Candy-O" Candy-O, I need you
Sunday dress, ruby ring
Candy-O, I need you so
Could you help me in?
Purple hum, assorted cards
Razor lights you'll bring
And all to prove you're on the move
And vanishing...
John Prine - "Sweet Revenge" I got kicked off Noah's Ark
I turn my cheek to unkind remarks
There was two of everything
But one of me
And when the rains came tumbling down
I held my breath and I stood my ground
And I watched that...
The Steve Miller Band - "Jungle Love" I met you on somebody's island
You thought you had known me before
I brought you a crate of papaya
They waited all night by your door
You probably wouldn't remember
I probably couldn't forget

Grateful Dead - "Scarlet Begonias" As I was walking 'round Grosvenor Square
Not a chill to the winter
But a nip to the air
From the other direction
She was calling my eye
It could be an illusion
But I might as well try
Might as well...
Robert Plant - "Tall Cool One" Ooh
I'm like a strange cat runnin' in the heat of the night
I've got a fire in my eyes, got a date with delight
Some kinda moaning in the heart of the storm
I'm gonna love you so hard, you'll want...
