lyrics

First day in a new town
come to catch what’s going down
seems to me no surprise
there’s more to see than meets the eyes

strike a match and take a puff
call the dealer at his bluff
take a chance and catch a big cold
die before you can get old

Peel away the skin from your eyes
so you can see
I’m not so jaded, I can recognize
I’m only being me

Trekking down the boulevard
whores are out and times are hard
with these girls no need for lines
twenty gets them every time

this is where nameless people drown
it’s just a place, it’s just a town
all dressed up nowhere to go
found dead down on Pico

Peel away the skin from your eyes
so you can see
I’m not so jaded, I can recognize
I’m only being me
