lyrics

got lost somewhere along the way
i lost it all now i got no place to stay
she took her love and ran away
i blame it all on l.a.
i woke up drunk again today
and i don't have no one else to blame
the story is always the same, welcome to sunny warm l.a.

i blame it all on l.a.
i blame it all on l.a.
i blame it all on l.a.
this moral decay
i blame it all on l.a.

for everyone who will break through
there are thousands that
die or get depressed
od and choke on the excess
i blame it all on l.a.

pretentious narcissists pervade
their selfish angles on their way
to their botox injection-ing
guess i should pack it up or stay
i could just learn to be okay with this material parade
i blame it all on l.a.

it’s not this city’s fault
that satan calls it home
that millions come here seeking fame and fortune
to die alone
when the earthquake reclaims it for hell
i'll be laughing to myself
i blame it all on la
