Losing my head to Hollywood My liver to London My youth to Tokyo Still on with the show
Oh, oh, on, oh, oh, on And oh, oh, on
It's a hard lesson but let me learn
L.A. big wheels turn, turn All your forest fires burn And all my dead meat yearns For the vulture's return
Take this d-d-dead meat My d-d-dead meat Your d-d-dead meat My d-d-dead meat
Coming down, coming down
Down in Santa Monica suicide motel One date with the devil, 7 days in hell Mama don't worry I say the boy is doing fine Home in a hurry and be sane with good t-t-time, time
Hard lessons but let me learn
L.A. big wheels turn, turn And all your forest fires burn And all my dead meat yearns For the vulture's return
Take my d-d-dead meat My d-d-dead meat Your d-d-dead meat Your d-d-dead meat
