200 South La Brea

(앨범: Calico Review - 2016)

Down the street with the Kosher shops
Passed the rummage yards with the antique props
Beauty queens and homesick harlots
All line up in the LA gauntlet

It's the corner where dreams are made
Where flaws are fixed up with pills and powder
The beginning of success and failure
At 200 South La Brea

Changed her name and headed to the city
Took out that loan and bought herself a Mini
Recites lines at the grocery store and then
Quotes old movies at table 4

They say: "Can you sing?" and "Can you cry?" and
"Will you take off your top if the price is right?"
"Do you smoke?" and "Do you drink?"
And "Do you wash your spoons in the bathroom sink?"

These are questions
At 200 South La Brea
Obsessions
At 200 South La Brea
