IF YOU ARE AS DISAFFECTED AND TIRED OF THE PURSUIT OF LOVE AND FULFILLMENT IN THIS BROKEN WORLD AS WE ARE, THEN THIS IS THE SONG FOR YOU TO SHAKE YOURSELF FREE

lyrics

I know, I know, I've heard the story
All about the kids that took over your town
I heard, I heard, you're really worried
That the housing prices won't ever go down
If you're listening, then let me tell you something
Most of us are better off to close our mouths and eyes
You know, you know, you always tell me
I can quit whenever I want
Can you imagine turning something into nothing
Tweaking out under the neon when you're dead inside
You ought to know, Miss California
That's how it goes, daddy's money up your nose

Eastside girls are all the same
Wasting all my time
Still ain't hitting right
Hey, Eastside girls are all the same
Wasted all the time
Waiting on their line

I know, I know, you've told this story
All about the songs that you've written downtown
I've heard, I've heard, that you're the reason
That custom cocktail prices won't ever come down
If you're wondering, then let me tell you something
Hand in hand we both are diving headlong into Hell
You know, you know, you always tell me
You think way too much about dying
Can you imagine turning nothing into something
A blessed clutch of us are born to this, and you can tell
I know, I know, heard the excuses
That's how it goes, when your halo doesn't glow

Eastside girls are all the same
Wasting all my time
Still ain't hitting right
Hey, Eastside girls are all the same
Wasted all the time
Waiting on their line

Numb me out with your dreams and a guitar
With some sick ink at my favorite bar
But it doesn't sit so well...

Eastside girls are all the same
Wasting all my time
Still ain't hitting right
Hey, Eastside girls are all the same
Wasted all the time
Waiting on their line
