Drinking In LA

Hi, my name is Stereo Mike
Yeah, we got three tickets to the Bran Van concert
Happening this Monday night at the Pacific Pallisades
You can all dial in if you want to answer a couple of questions
Namely, what is Todds favourite cheese
Jackie just called up and said it was a form of Roquefort
Well see about that
Give us a ring-ding-ding
Its a beautiful day
Yeah Todd, this is Liquid
Ring-a-ding-a-dinging
Want those three Bran Van tickets man
Waddya think?
Todd, you there?
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 'Too Wong Foo, Julie Newmar' hit
Get your ass out of bed, he said
Ill 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 26 ?
I got the fever for the flavour
The payback will be late
Still I need a fix
And the girls on the bus kept on laughing at us
As we rode on the 10 down to Venice again
Flaring out the G-Funk
Sipping on a juice and gin
Just me and a friend
Feeling kinda groovy
Working on a movie
(Yeah right! )
But we did nothing
Absolutely butkis that day
And I say
What the hell am I doing drinking in L.A.
At 26?
With my mind on my money and my money on my mind
I know that life is for the taking
So I better wise up
And take it quick
(Yeah, one more time at Trader Vics)
Some men there wanted to hurt us
And other men said we werent worth the fuss
We could see them all *****ing by the bar
About the fine line
Between the rich and the poor
Then Mike turned to me and said
'What do you think we got done son?'
Weve found a conclusion
And I guess thats something
So I ask you
What the hell am I doing drinking in L.A.
At 26?
I got the fever for the nectar
The payback will be late
Still I need a fix
(We need to fix you up
Call me Monday and maybe well fix it all up.)
