Quotes:

Gypsy: [to audience] My mother, who got me into this business, always told me, "Make them beg for more and then don't give it to them!" But I'm not my mother!

Gypsy: Some men have called me an ecdysiast. Do you know what that means? An ecdysiast is one who, or that which, sheds it's skin. In vulgar parlance, a stripper. But I'm not a stripper. At these prices, I'm an ecdysiast!

Louise: You really could have been something, Mother.::Rose: If I could have been, I would have been. And that's show business.

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

[Verse 1: Nelly]
I just touched down at this LAX
I'm looking for these girls on this LAX
Trying to find them niggas with that LA best
Dodging them niggas with that LA Stress
See I'm a visitor I'm a LA guest
I got to be aware on how the LA dress
Cause if it comes down I might get LA stretched
I ain't trying to be a trophy on no LA desk
Some niggas walk up tossing LA sets
I guess this supposed to be some type of LA test
Better watch the girls with the LA chest
Alot of plastic in those LA breasts (hahahaha)
I hit the crenshaw where they LA stunt
Seen a lot of 64's and LA trucks
Seen a lot of girls with them LA butts
A lot of niggas with them dickies and chucks (ya feel me)
[Chorus x2: Nelly, Snoop Dogg]
Switch 1 (switch 1) raise it up

Switch 3 (switch 3) work it side to side
Switch 4 (switch 4) make it a ? ride

[Verse 2: Nelly]
Yo I spend a lot of time on this LA coast
Out here trying to do the LA most
Showfer driven phantom like a LA ghost
In the back with a drink take a LA toast
I spend a lot of time in them LA heels
With them models actresses and them LA heels
To my lawyers office for a LA deal
Cut the check for some LA kneels
Now I'm off to roadao just to LA shop
Still getting dirty looks from some LA cops
You than thought since Rodney King LA stopped
When they burn the LA watts
I send a lot of love to my LA brothers
My latinos and my negroes in them LA colors
My blessings go out to those LA mothers
Know that nelly is an LA lover
[Chorus x2: Nelly, Snoop Dogg]

Guess who just stepped in the place (the midwest)
It's your OG homie Nate (all day)
My homie snoop and nelly (La)
And we all up in your face (all day)

When the sun burns it's not out of revenge,
Merely an assertion of dominance,
Or maybe definition through omnipresence,
This city has it's own life in a literal sense,
The Industry, the Industry,
Talk to me please,
You've surely seen the movies of the people on their knees,
The imitation of life exacted on a screen,
It's no surprise as Hollywood controls all of the means
Cruising in the afternoon in your rented car,
We're taking it past Western on the Boulevard,
We're gonna sip our sodas with the posers on Vermont,
But I don't give a shit,
It's on another plane I'm on,
I don't give a shit,
It answers why I'm here,
Nothing as contrived as culture or career,
We're living in the limbo that's become the DMZ,
Where voices of the future call the voice of history
Cruising in the afternoon, indulging in the signs,
I'm burning every strip mall in places in my mind,
The crippling visions,
So easy comes the hate,
Rice and beans and sour cream are blurring on my plate,
Stagger down Pico,
Step on every crack,
Sweat and smog concoction glues my shirt to my back,
7-11s help to keep my mind clear,

Instrumental

The gentleman's in the lane
Spinning his hat on a cane
Stepping out, out for a change
Good morning all, it's a beautiful day
The generals are winning the war
Seemed suicidal before you came along
Now, now
I'll protect you, long as you'll stay
Morning had to come, I'd be walking in the sun
Living in the day
But last night I was about to throw it all away
If patience started a band
I'd be her biggest fan
Look at me, I'm talking to you
I don't want the lead in your play
The star's just a part of the scene
The gentleman in green
Paying off, out on the street
I can't go home, it's not on my way
Things I've never done, cars parked in the sun
Living in the day
But last night I was about to throw it all away
Last night I was about to throw it all away
Last night I was about to throw it all away

There's a city in the west of the USA
It's the city of the angels, called L. A.
Girls look pretty and the air is tastin' sweet
California dreams, in anyone you meet
There's no yesterday, we're livin' for today
California, we are here to stay
Hey you, yes we're going down
It's been a long way coming back to L. A.
It must be heaven, for an angel never weeps
They forget about time and don't care about satin
sheets
No one's unhappy and it hits you right away
You can let it go, thumbs up for LA.
85° degrees, souls never freeze
California, we are here to stay
Hey you, yes we're going down
It's been a long way coming back to L. A.
85° degrees, souls never freeze
California, we are here to stay
Hey you, yes we're going down
It's been a long way coming back to L. A.
Hey you, yes we're going down

I'm from L dot A dot California hot
Days got shade let me take you 'round the way
Lot of out-of-towners can't handle this city
Where you wear the wrong color and it can get tricky
But that was eighty-six and, things done changed
We a lot mo' evolved with the way that we bang
Not the rips and the dawgs, man the smog might kill ya
But you ain't gotta worry if you stayin' north of Wilshire
Don't be scared of Crenshaw, the Slausson super-mall
Or Earl's Hot Dogs man you gotta do it y'all, c'mon
Come to the hood where we do the most good
Magic Johnson be ownin' everything like he should
Lynnwood, Long Beach, Hawthorne, Gardena
From the towers in Watts, to the hills of Alta Dena
The home of the traffic and that gangbang culture
And I hope the way we do the damn thang don't insult ya
I'm from L.A. ah, Southern California
Fool the West coast, where everybody is somebody
And the game is fame, do every thang with a bang
And everybody wanna know, what set you claim
I'm from L.A. ah, Southern California
Fool the West coast, where everybody is somebody
And the game is fame, do every thang with a bang
And everybody wanna know, what set you claim
The land where the six-fo's, hop up and get low
Your favorite rapper gettin' jacked for more than his sick flows
Home of the pornos, we mess up award shows
The weather's always warm so the women wear short clothes
Our beaches ain't the cleanest but the ah, is the greenest
And we got the blonde bombshells and sick Latinas
Then mix in the dark-skinned light-skinned sisters
Where you never have to wear your triple goose on Christmas
You can miss us with the blizzards and the winters
The hurricanes unless it's in some glasses with some actresses
Perfect frame, silicone or real it don't matter if she paid for it
Every single trend you can probably thank L.A. for it
Bandanas, facelifts, quick trips to Vegas
White t-shirt, Chuck Taylors or them K-Swiss
Poplockin', Crip walkin', chronic blunts, G-Funk
A place that everybody hate, but you gotta see once
I'm from L.A. ah, Southern California
Fool the West coast, where everybody is somebody
And the game is fame, do every thang with a bang
And everybody wanna know, what set you claim
I'm from L.A. ah, Southern California
Fool the West coast, where everybody is somebody
And the game is fame, do every thang with a bang

Let's blow this taco stand
This cultural wasteland
L.A., I've taken all I can
Your sunshine burns me
Your traffic drives me
Crazy
You beautiful women
All legs and silicone
They're custom-built for sin
Every day at the gym,
Work out, stay thin
Oh my, just
Look at the shape you're in
Never mind about the nights out drinking
The cocaine binging
The lack of thinking
Whoa, my brain is shrinking,
Everyday
Surfer boy rock out
But the witch I can do without
This is no place for me,
There's no doubt
Pale skin and good taste
My mind is a shame to waste
Oh Lord, there must be a better place
Where the streets ain't paved with gold
Where twenty-five ain't considered too old
Where they've got weather that's hot and cold

All the hunnies in the bathroom stalls
Drawing their lips and making business calls
All the apathetic trust fund boys
Making the rounds in their expensive toys
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
I don't wanna lose you tonight
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
And all of the bright lights Oh, all of the bight lights
You can hang under the
Prada sign
While you're walking your dog on Rodeo Drive
You can surgically remove your soul
While you dream of your leading role
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
I don't wanna lose you in the sun
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
And all of the big fun
Oh, all of the big fun
Oh, how it starts irritate
Yeah Oh, that's ok 'cause the weather is great
Oh, everday, yeah
You might need a lawyer for your friends
Hit all the spots 'cause he can get you in
Introduce yourself to glam rock stars
Give 'em a ride in your electric car
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
I don't wanna lose you in the sun
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
And all of the big fun I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
I don't wanna lose you tonight
I don't wanna lose you to L.A.
To L.A. And all of the bright lights
Oh, all of the bight lights
All the hunnies in the bathroom stalls
And all the apathetic trust fund boys

Pretty girl on every corner
sunshine turns the sky to gold
warm, warm, its always warm here
i can't take the cold
street littered with diamonds
everyone is glistening
this whole world shines so brightly
i can't see a thing
she's pretty as a picture
she is like a golden ring
circles me with love and laughter
an i can't feel a thing
sky's gonna open
poeple gonna pray and crawl
it's gonna rain down fire
it's gonna burn us all
the skys gonna open

Oh, here?s a story about a boy named Jay
Nothing he did would ever get in my way
But there?s still a long, long way to go
I?ve only ever seen his face on film
I?ve only ever heard the lines he?d say
But still they won?t get in my way
I?m always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring you down
Never let them tear me down
I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I?m happy to be by myself
I don?t need no one else
He?s never ever seen my face before
I?m trying hard 'cause this I can?t ignore
But there?s still a long, long way to go
I?m always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring you down
Never let them tear me down
I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I'm happy to be by myself
I don?t need no one else
All my dreams are built around your face
And this place
All the times of staring at the sun
You?re the one
All my dreams are built around your face
And this place
All the times of staring at the sun
You?re the one
I?m always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring you down
Never let them tear me down
I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I?m happy to be by myself
I don?t need no one else
I?m always told to be the dreamer kind
Wake up one morning and your dreams are life
Never let them bring you down
Never let them tear me down
I always thought that I would follow you
Every place and everything you do
But I'm happy to be by myself

The girls last words were a perfect kiss
She knows a place that I can't resist
I finally made it to the sunset strip
Palm trees beaches and junky needles
Pin up gangsters and pre fat beatles
The little pills, that make you feel okay
and those west coast girls
let 'em drown in pearls
LA, LA, LA'AAA, LA
(bah da buh buh ba ba ba)
Botox, Face lifts and suicides
Skin so stretched the women look surprised
Filthy clean white colar crimeless break?
The promise land of milk and decup honey
All the flowers kind of smell like money
Above this smog I think it might be sunnier
and all those westcoast girls

Temptation was too strong
To look but avoid touch
So we gave into what we wanted
We gave into so much
We took a little glimse
Passed each other by
Don't ask me to explain
It's been strange for a while
You'll tell me what I wanna hear
And I'll know that it's a lie
I had the chance to let go
Could have missed the pain
But I know
It wasn't a mistake
Chorus:
'Cause what we need to realize
Is that it took us by surprise
We shouldn't turn away
From the things we need to say
Now I'm stuck here with a choice
'Cause I need to hear your voice
This foolish pride is killing me
Now that I'm looking back
I have no regrets
I somehow I feel let down
From the things that I expect
The right time is gonna come
But maybe not just get
I had the chance to let go (We could have gone our seperate ways)
Could have missed the pain (Know that I've seen better days)
But I know (There's this feeling inside that won't go away)
It wasn't a mistake

The sun's coming up in the sky
I'm watching the birds passing on by
It makes me wanna cry
It makes me wanna cry
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
I'm lying face upon the ground
Watching the clouds running around
It makes me feel so high
It makes me feel so high
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

One day this trip will surely end
And there's no need to start again
One day this trip will surely end

when i told you i was going anyways
you said how could do it leave me in this old town
with only one wanted to marry but now your gone
did the summer mean nothing to you at all
i said how could you not want to see Hollywood
with all the beaches and the houses we could
invest a dime and get a little place of our own
i know its not cheap but with this suit and this tie
i can get a job and we can start our lives
will be living like the people in the movies just wait and see
you said you don't want to do it you don't want to move to L.A.
and i remember how sad you were that day
when i told you i was going anyways
you said how could do it leave me in this old town
with only one wanted to marry but now your gone
did the summer mean nothing to you at all
after all this debating i think you were right
that we shouldn't try to run from the problems in our lives
and what the hell was i thinking i could never leave
and im sad i couldn't swim in the ocean but i got to swim in your pool
with you
even though its not the place in my dreams
then again what else could i need
i said i don't want to do i don't want to move to L.A.
and i remember how happy you were that day
when i told you that i was going to stay
you said i knew you couldn't do i knew couldn't leave me in this town
im the one you wanted and if you never lived in this town you never
would have found me

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?
