Drinking in L.A.

Hi my name is stereo Mike Yeah, we got free tickets to the Bran Van concert Happening this Monday night at the Pacific Coliseum You can all call in if you want to answer a couple of questions, mainly, what is Todd's favorite cheese? Ah, Jackie just called in and said it was a type of Rockford, whatever that is Give us a ring-a-ding-ding, it's a beautiful day Yeah Todd, this is Liquid ring-a-ding-dinging I want those free Bran Van tickets man What do you think? Todd? (He's alive Mike, alive, Todd) I woke up again this morning with the sun in my eyes When Mike came over with a script surprise A mafioso story with a twist A To Wong Fu-Julie Newmar Hitch "Get your ass out of bed" he said, "I'll explain it on the way" But we did nothing, absolutely nothing that day And I say, what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six? I got the fever for the flavour The payback will be later But still I need a fix And the girls on the bus kept laughing at us As we rode on the 10 down to Venice again Blaring out the g-funk sipping on juice and gin Just me and a friend feeling kind of groovy, workin' on a movie (yeah, right) But we did nothing, absolutely buttkiss that day And I'll say, what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six? (With my mind on my money and my money on my beer, beer) I know that life is for the taking So I better wise up and take it quick (yeah, one more time at Trader Vic's) Well some men there wanted to hurt us And other men said we weren't worth the fuss You could catch 'em all bitching by the bar Above the fine line between the rich and the poor Then Mike turned to me and said "what you think we got done son?" We had the conclusion and I guess that's something So I ask you what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six? I got the fever for the nectar, the payback will be later Still I need a fix Hell-A-L.A., hell hell-A.L.A Hell-A-L.A., hell hell-A.L.A Hell-A-L.A., hell hell-A So I ask you what the hell am I doing drinking in L.A. at twenty-six? (He's alive Mike, alive) L.A., L.A. --- Drinking in L.A. - Bran Van 3000
