Seattle head

A kick in the head

When I was young I had dream
Movin' to the city, sight unseen
Nineteen years of age I packed up my bags
Hollywood was all the rage
I came to you in 1984
Shoved me in, then they shut the door
It didn't take me long to learn to play the game
A kick in the head always feel the same

Los Angeles, you're a fuc*** whore
Hollywood, you're an open sore

I played it well, and I played it fast
Livin' slow was in the past
Chicks and drugs and gettin' burnt
Just a few of the things I learnt
Got sick and tired of being scared as hell
A wasted man, just a shell of myself
But that was then, and this is now
My pretty baby, I've changed somehow Los Angeles, you've lost your grip
Drugs and lies and whores suckin' dick

I don't know if I could do it differently
LA had me for so long
When I look I can see things differently
What doesn't kill me makes me strong, strong, strong

Los Angeles, I didn't sell my soul to you
Los Angeles, you thought you would kill me

You thought you would kill me
You thought you could take me down
You thought you would kill me
F*** that, power to me

I don't know if I could do it differently
LA had me for so long
When I look I can see things differently
I get up, crawl out and now I am strong, now I am strong.

Sometimes it goes like this
Sometimes it's the only way, to learn it
A kick in the head
I wish you were dead
A kick in the head
A kick in the head
