lyrics

so I hear you’re getting tired of Southern California
aint enough to keep inspired
time to pack and leave the shores

fresh off the train, wide eyed
you got here right on time
but don’t think you’ve lost your mind
they’re just twenty years behind

well this town is on fire
if you like to go slow
big n’ rich in tradition and the simple things
keeping it all down-home

slow down, take a look around
the hills are rolling greener
held out is a helping hand
like people from a small town

you’re gonna talk my ear off
and gimme your life story
and all I want are stamps

the only atm is broken
the teller’s line is out the door
and all I want is cash

look on the bright side
rent is cheap and the traffic flows
and it’s not the end of the world
unless the Best Coast disappears
