Lyrics for Lost Angeles

The truth that I sing And the words that I bring Are all meant for you The trees they are full And the minds they are bare And this time I care. Everyone has a car But they won't travel far Nobody here has the sunshine like I have. Sad sad town, sad sad town In the burning desert Shanty town, shanty town, Shanty town of the millionaire A man will awaken one morning Alone in the big brown gras A millionaire alone in the burning desert. Here am I alone in this city Ain't that a pity I just want to leave And get away from Lost Angeles Earthquakes and smog Are driving me out of town I don't want to be here I don't want to be around Take me away if you please I do not want to live in Lost Angeles I don't want to live here Just want to get back home I don't want to be here any more I want to be on my own Take me away if you please Get me away from Lost Angeles.
