CWell I went to a Hollywood Fparty, Gbunch of drunken damn Cfools
CJumpin off the Frooftop, Ginto the neighbors poolC  
CSame old converFsations, you wanna be Gfamous, or you wanna be coolAm  
CGuess I better go Fhome, before I hit Gsomeone
[Chorus]
Cause this FL.A. Livin ain’t Glike it was back Chome
It’s Fwarm in the winter and the Gwind never gets too Cstrong
SometFimes I think about Cyou, I hope your not alFone
CI hope that you and my old dog, ain’t Gmad at me no moreC  
[Verse 2]
CLast night I went to see PhFillip, Gand his band down in echo Cpark

CDrinkin’ in the back stFreets, and cryin’ on a Ghardwood floor
[Chorus 2]
And this FL.A. Livin ain’t Glike it was down Csouth
When Fsomeone gets to singin some Gfucker won’t shut his Cmouth

CSee how he talks about punk rock with Ghis jaw wired shutC  
[Repeat chorus 1]
And this FL.A. Livin ain’t Glike it was back Chome
