I've got a love and hate relationship with L.A. Off the plane, paint my face in the car, park my heart at the valet I watch the sun sink down over Santa Monica Boulevard When I'm lonely and I'm missin' home But other times, I feel like my blood is runnin' Cali I've got some famous friends that I could call But I don't know if I'm cool enough And what's worse than spendin' time alone Is one of them not pickin' up It's hard to grow and time to go But some days I wanna stay I got a love and hate relationship with L.A. I wonder if I'll get invited to the party (I wonder if I'll get invited to the party) Yeah and if I do, will I go? If I go, will I know somebody? (Will I even know somebody?) I'm on my third glass of wine tryna find conversation In a room with bigger names But other days I'm lookin' up the real estate Confetti's fallin', friends are callin' But which part is reality? And if I let down my hair in the ocean air Will Tennessee be mad at me? Yeah, I know it ain't a one-way road But sometimes it feels that way I got a love and hate relationship with L.A. Yeah, ooh Yeah, ooh Sometimes it feels like it's all real But nothin' here is as it seems I ask myself, does it feed my soul or my anxiety? Carpet's red, ego's fed, but it's myself that I have to face That's why I've got a love and hate relationship with L.A. Yeah, ooh Yeah, ooh
