Duff McKagan - Seattle Head lyrics

When I was a young, I had a dream Movin' to the city sight unseen 19 years of age I'm packing my bags Hollywood was all the rage I came to you in 1984 You showed me in, then you shut the door It didn't take me long to learn to play the game A kick in the head always feels the same (Chorus) Los Angeles, you're a f**in who*e Hollywood, you're an open sore I played it well, and I played it fast Livin' slow was in the past Chicks and d** and gettin' burnt Just a few of the things I 'learnt' Got sick and tired of bein' scared as hell A wasted man, just a shell of myself But that was then, and this is now My pretty baby, I've changed somehow (Chorus 2) Los angeles, you've lost you're grip Drugs and lies and who*es s**in dick (B-verse) I don't know if I could do things differently L.A.'s had me for so long When I look I can see things differently What doesn't k** me makes me strong (Bridge) Los Angeles, I didn't sell my soul to you Los Angeles, you thought you would k** me You thought you could take me down f** that, power to me (Chorus) (B-verse) Sometimes it goes like this Some A kick in the head
