Ten Hands - East Coast Jones lyrics

(Slavens) Back home it's the same Things are very slow to change By the time the news comes in from L.A The latest fad is already pa**e (hey, hey) The clothes and the music and the latest phrase Tomorrow has the reek of yesterday Everybody wants to keep up With the east coast Jones And the west coast way to play Back here it's the same Everything is up to date They say Build it up, buy it up, eat it up fast It's made for looks But it ain't made to last Buy a nice house Buy a nice car Junior executives Born to be a star If you want to be in fashion You'll have to pay The east coast Jones And the west coast way to play Out there it's the same Except there ain't nobody knows your name 'the gra** is always greener on the other side' And 'you can run but you can never hide' Well you see All the same rules will still apply You'll still get low You know you'll still get high Everybody runs to keep up With the east coast Jones And the west coast way to play
