Dog Days In LA

I walked every canyon in this town

Tryna figure myself out

How'd I need so much space in LA

When nobody's ever around?

And it almost drove me crazy

Almost drove me from my head

And still we call it beautiful

When the sunset meets the smog

And still I say that I'm doing well

Even when I'm not

Dog days in LA, in LA

Mm-hmm

I met a girl in the valley at my friend's

Even helped her get a kid

But she don't remember my name

I meet her over and over again

And still we call it beautiful

When the sunset meets the smog

And still I say that I'm doing well

Even when I'm not

And still we call it beautiful

'Til our lungs have had enough

And still I say that I'm doing well

But we'll never have enough

Dog days in LA, in LA

Mm-hmm

Sometimes I drive to Malibu

Sit in the park the rich people don't use

Sand in my shoes and stare at the library

Where all the books are new

And still we call it beautiful

When the sunset meets the smog

And still I say that I'm doing well

Even when I'm not

And still we call it beautiful

'Til our lungs have had enough

And still I say that I'm doing well

But we'll never have enough

Dog days in LA, in LA

Mm-hmm

Dog days in LA, in LA

Mm-hmm
