L.A.
Elliott Smith
[Verse 1]
The gentleman's in the lane
Spinning his hat on a cane
Stepping out
Out for change
Good morning all, it's a beautiful day

The generals are winning a war
Seemed suicidal before
You came along, now
Now I'll protect you
Long as you stay

[Chorus]
L.A
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
L.A
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
Last night I was about to throw it all away
Write the lyrics for a rock song made in 2000, titled "L.A.", by artist "Elliott Smith".
