  • Paul Simon was going to Graceland, Toto blessed the rains down in Africa – what place would you write a song about? See all answers
    • My song about monterey, ca
    • here's the place where i live, it's the old fisherman's town
      where sicilians and italianos came to settle on down
      opened up what we thought was a legitimate biz
      turns out, just a cover for some shadier things
      and in turn all their kids grew up with the finest of things
      biggest trucks, nicest clothes, their daughters covered in bling
      so they walk around this city like they're part of the mob
      when in all cases they end up in construction site jobs
      follow daddy in careers so why pay attention in class?
      the family will take care of ya as long as you last
      instead of school let's hit up the underground or via
      look at all the good for nothin's who are tryin to be us
      saddest part is they actually believe it
      let's get faded so much we can't see straight anymore
      then drive the chevy home and pass out on the floor
      wake up with a different girl than from the night before
      hope my best bud doesnt get mad i hooked up with his whore.
      and im sick of the way that they carry themselves
      like they have more to offer cuz they think they're top shelf
      stuck in this town but it hadnt been choiced
      cuz the last of his girlfriends stuck him with a set of twin boys
      look down on us cuz we dont follow the crowd
      well excuse me if i dont wanna be your cronies or clown.
      so listen up this goes out to all of you fakers and phonies
      this will get ya all fired up, go whine, piss and moan at ya mommys
      cuz i really dont care what you think about me or my friends
      you pushed us too far and now it's your end
      so go get your posse of 50 plus guys
      with them all in front of you we cant see the fear in your eyes
      stand up one on one man to man what you got kid
      or will be just them same run and hide like you always did
      it's easy bein' hero when you're back by your whole crew
      it's a completely different story when i'm starin' right at you.
