Frank Black - Los Angeles (acoustic cover)

A classic song from Frank Black of the Pixies. If you are a Modest Mouse fan and haven't listened to Black's self-titled album, or his "Teenager of the Year' album, you are missing out on some great songs. You can definitely hear how Modest Mouse was influenced by his and the Pixies' styles in some ways. Check out the original version of this song. Badass

Lyrics:
I met a man
He was a good man
Sailin' and shorin'
Dancing the beta can-can
Talking that foreign, aw yeah
I want to live in Los Angeles
But not the one in Los Angeles
No not the one in South California
They got one in South Patagonia
I want to live in Los Angeles
But not the one in Los Angeles
They got a bunch down in Moleville
They got a bunch more still
I want to live in Los Angeles
But not the one in Los Angeles
They got one in twenty-five two five
Works just like a bee hive
I wanna live in Los Angeles
But not the one in Los Angeles
Countin' helicopters on a Saturday night
The symphony of the fair light
I hear them saying "Los Angeles"
In all the black and white movie
And if you think they star spangled us
How come we say "Los Angeleez"
I'll wait in Los Angeles
I'll wait in the pouring sun
No way, for not anyone
No way
