West of Hollywood |
| Brother in tears |
| Look at this chain of sorrows |
| Stretching all the way from here and now to hell and gone |
| I was kid clean |
| She was anne de siecle |
| Just a thrill away from punching through to the cosmic wow |
| It started out good |
| Then it got lots better |
| Makin up the rules as we went along |
| But with a business like this |
| Theres an gnarly downside |
| Im way deep into nothing special |
| Riding the crest of a wave breaking just west of hollywood |
| Swingin so hard |
| We burned right through the summer |
| Till the axis of pain/pleasure sheared the arc of desire |
| From the rebus affair |
| To the streets of culver city |
| Places and events slip below the horizon line |
| Now at this time |
| Into our pretty story |
| The truth compels us To bring a certain name |
| Meet if you will |
| Doctor warren kruger |
| She reached out for my hand |
| While I watched myself lurch across the room |
| And I almost got there |
| Look in my eyes |
| Cant you see the core is frozen? |
| You cant ask me to access the dreams I dont have now |
| Sadly for us Our little talk is over |
| So together well endure the tyranny of the disallowed |
| Dont you love port blanc |
| When hooterie is over |
| When the girls get easy and the crowds are gone |
| A weekend of bliss |
| Then the rainy season |
