letra de l.a. dream - henry phillips

[verse 1]
well, i quit my job at the corner store
and i started heading out for the open road
with nothing more than my 6-string and a dream
and the shirt on my back, and my pants, of course

[verse 2]
well, interstate 10, west coast bound
heading for a place that some people like to call l.a
where they say the sun is always shining
and all the girls are always naked and the dudes are g-y
[pre-chorus 1]
that’s what they say about l.a

[chorus 1]
l.a. dream, where the freeways are like rainbows to the clouds
l.a. dream, where the fires of burning rush light up the sky
l.a. dream, and the mudslides wash away your tears of pain
and the palm tress lie in the starry road to fame

[verse 3]
well, i was paying dues, tanning bar
and a guy came up to me and said, “hey, kid, you wanna be a star?”
and i said, “yeah, actually, did a little bit of acting back in school
i was in the school play and i played a tree”
and he said, “that’s good enough for me”

[verse 4]
so he hopped in to his white van
and we went to a studio that looked a little bit more like an abandoned warehouse
and he made me put on leather bike chaps and a gladiator helmet
and i said, “oh, i get it… this is a period piece”

[pre-chorus 2]
well, needless to say the movie never was released
and i’m not supposed to talk about it
’cause even though there was a happy ending
there’s still some charges pending
and it’s time for me to make my way back home
(here we go)
[chorus 2]
l.a. dream, where the roads are famous, blocked by gridlock traffic
l.a. dream, and n0body ever seems to have any money
and even though my face’s smiling underneath my soul’s dead
and it didn’t really work out like they said

[outro]
no, it didn’t work exactly like they said
