Rancid - Backslide

Los Angeles take your dreams away.
Burnin' on the ground.
At the end of the day it's your life, your loss.
And you can't turn the clock around.

I said: Oh my god, you can have her for that,
But you better not miss a shot.
You're letting yourself get into all kinds of danger.
Soon enough you're gonna get caught.

They had a feeling.
It was like you had to prove you're one in a million.
And on top of that junk he's been dealing.
This time the drugs are you.
And they'll come through.
It ain't gonna stop 'til they get what they want.

And I say.
Nobody knows me, I'm all alone.
Ah yayayayay I gotta go.
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over.
Ah yayayayay I gotta go.

John couldn't flag his homeboy down so he waited for a ride.
Then waited to confide in Hollywood's concert backslide.
With affordable lives and a sunroof, nestled among the filth.
Infrequencies and bad intentions, gotta take it for what it's worth.

They had a feeling.
It was like you had to prove you're one in a million.
And on top of that junk he's been dealing.
This time the drugs are you.
And they'll come through.
It ain't gonna stop 'til they get what they want.

And I say.
Nobody knows me, I'm all alone.
Ah yayayayay I gotta go.
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over.
Ah yayayayay I gotta go.

Have you ever been haunted by your past.
And it will never let you go.
Well never never let you go.
No! I said.
Well never never let you go.

And I say.
Nobody knows me, I'm all alone.
Ah yayayayay I gotta go.
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over.
Ah yayayayay I gotta go.
