Go west
|
Paradise is there
|
You'll have all that you can eat
|
Of milk & honey over there
|
|
You'll be the brightest star
|
The world has ever seen
|
Sun-baked slender heroine
|
Of film & magazine
|
|
Go west
|
Paradise is there
|
You'll have all that you can eat
|
Of milk & honey over there
|
|
You'll be the brightest light
|
The world has ever seen
|
The dizzy height of a jet-set life
|
You could never dream
|
|
Your pale blue eyes
|
Strawberry hair
|
Lips so sweet
|
Skin so fair
|
|
Your future bright
|
Beyond compare
|
It's rags to riches
|
Over there
|
|
San Andreas Fault
|
Moved its fingers
|
Through the ground
|
Earth divided
|
Plates collided
|
Such an awful sound
|
|
San Andreas Fault
|
Moved its fingers
|
Through the ground
|
Terra cotta shattered
|
And the walls came
|
Tumbling down
|
|
O, promised land
|
O, wicked ground
|
Build a dream
|
Tear it down
|
|
O, promised land
|
What a wicked ground
|
Build a dream
|
Watch it all fall down
|
