when canyons ruled the city(Album Version|Explicit) - Butch Walker

Laurel was a girl I knew
Made of dirt and stone
Pretty hip in younger times
Now she sits alone
With a hundred thousand
Beat up architectural disasters
She calls homes
Beverly glen was pretty
All the rich boys loved her curves
She tried to get the credit sometimes
More than she deserved
Like those cheesy 80창s movies
She epitomized all things
Beachwood was a boheme
From the sexy 60창s scene
Grew up east of West Hollywood
And somewhere in between
All the madness Laurel puts up with but
Somehow always tolerates a scene
With performing arts
A and are guys having cookouts
On her back with super stars
But she had some nasty habits and some
Roadwork to repair this drama queen
Sometimes Beachwood yelled at Laurel
On the terms of selling out
Then laurel yelled at Beverly
For not knowing what life창s about
With her trust fund friends and family
It felt just like an earthquake
When she창d shout
And Silverlake just stood there
With her nose up in the air
Pushing up her horn rimmed glasses saying
I don't f**king care
Bout the drama all you idiots are buying
Selling leasing up there
San Fernando was a struggling actor
Drove a deli truck to the sets of porno
Movies just trying to make a buck
While his pilot sits in escrow he dreams of
Dating Beverly one day
