Lyrics

(Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
(Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
Doheny, (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
Cahuenga, (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
La Brea... (Pico and Sepulveda)
...Tar Pits (Tar Pits!)
La Jolla, (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
Sequoia, (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
La Brea... (Pico and Sepulveda)
...Tar Pits (Tar Pits!)
You can keep Alvarado, Santa Monica, even Beverly Drive.
Vine may be fine, but for mine I want to feel a-live and settle down in my love
La Brea... (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
...Tar Pits (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
Where nobody's dreams come true... (Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
(Pico and Sepulveda, Pico and Sepulveda)
