[Intro]

Jimmy said he could handle this

Ohhhh, he's from Los Angeles


[Verse 1]

Jimmy said he could handle this

Born and raised in west Los Angeles

Daddy's a lawyer, mother's a shrink

Love in the family is the weakest link

One thing seemed very clear

Daddy's got no connection here

Everything's rejected and demanded

Lived your life and the things you're handed

Left to die on the shores of the East River


[Chorus]

Let's go!

Where the shores are green

Let's go!

Where the music's loud

Let's go!

[?] Broadway, five kids from New Jersey


[Verse 2]

It’s very funny how life gets torn

Rich kid plays poker, rich kid gets burnt

They didn’t come but you had to find it

Lookin' at the sun you get blinded

You didn’t care, you just stared

At the sign that said: "all beware”

In and about a set rat trap, dying

While trying to get the bread

Left to die on the shores of the East River


[Chorus]

Let's go!

Where the shores are green

Let's go!

Where the music's loud

Let's go!

[Outro]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
