Dreaming in LA Lyrics

A little tale about living in LA

Fancy cars and envy

Spinning wheels and breaks

Tommy got a six string

Sheila got a G-string

Money, fame and a pipe dream

Whatever it takes

All for 15 minutes or flavor of the week

Tommy became a rocker

Sheila became a freak

When they finally met

There were sparks in the air

A chance to hit the big time and do it as a pair

Don't wanna be

Waiting for fortune and fame

Don't wanna be

Bound by the rules of the game

Don't want to be

A poser with a name

Dreaming in LA

Tommy got a record deal

Went right up his nose

Sheila was an actor

On reality shows

They dropped him off the label

They pushed her out the door

They were hanging out on Sunset

Begging for more

Don't wanna be

Waiting for fortune and fame

Don't wanna be

Bound by the rules of the game

Don't want to be

A poser with a name

Dreaming in LA

Don't wanna be

Don't wanna be a wanna be

Eleven years later

They were sitting at a bar

Came to a realization

They weren't getting too far

So they threw in the towel

They were done with LA

Packed up their dreams and faded away

Don't wanna be

Waiting for fortune and fame

Don't wanna be

Bound by the rules of the game

Don't want to be

A poser with a name

Dreaming in LA

Lights

Camera
