NEIL YOUNG lyrics : "L.A."

In a matter of time,
There'll be a friend of mine
Gonna come to the coast,

You're gonna see him
Up close for a minute or two
While the ground cracks under you.


By the look in your eyes
You'd think that it was a surprise

But you seem to forget
Something somebody said
About the bubbles in the sea

And an ocean full of trees.

And you now, L.A.

Uptight,
city in the smog,
city in the smog.

Don't you wish that
you could be here too?
Don't you wish that

you could be here too?
Don't you wish that
you could be here too?


Well, it's hard to believe
So you get up to leave

And you laugh at the door
That you heard it all before
Oh it's so good to know

That it's all just a show for you.

But when the suppers are planned

And the freeways are crammed
And the mountains erupt
And the valley is sucked

Into cracks in the earth
Will I finally be heard by you.


L.A.
Uptight,
city in the smog,

city in the smog.
Don't you wish that
you could be here too?

Don't you wish that
you could be here too?
Don't you wish that

you could be here too?
