Calistan |
I took three days to drive down one street |
The radio on, tuned to the big fleet |
Invisible planes are cracking the concrete |
That’s just what some people say, hey hey |
I put down my blanket on Cigarette Butt Beach |
I saw the old man, he was doing OK |
He’s making his last stand on old bottles and cans |
Round there, Calistan way, hey hey |
Used to be sixteen lanes |
Used to be Nuevo Spain |
Used to be Juan Wayne |
Used to be Mexico |
Used to be Navajo |
Used to be yippy-ay-I-don't know |
Went in from the weather when I got wheezy |
I play some pachinko I play Pachisi |
And St. Anne is still making me breezy |
In the valley of tar that once was L.A., hey hey |
And my best friend he’s the king of karaoke |
He struck up a chord and he took it away |
Out of the pan and into Japan |
Round there, Calistan way, hey hey |
Used to be sixteen lanes |
Used to be Juan Wayne |
Used to be Mexican |
Used to be Espano Nuevo |
Used to be Navajo |
Used to be yippy-ay-I-don't know |
