The gentleman's in the lane, spinning his hat on a cane
Stepping out, out for a change
"Good morning all, it's a beautiful day"
The generals are winning a war; seemed suicidal before you came along
Now I'll protect you long as you stay
LA, mornin' had to come, I'd be walking in the sun
Livin' in the day, but last night I was about to throw it all away
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"
LA, things I'd never done, cars parked in the sun (ahh)
Livin' in the day, but last night I was about to throw it all away
Last night I was about to throw it all away (ahh)
Last night I was about to throw it all away (ahh)
Last night I was about to throw it all away (ahh)
