Weekend in LA Songtext

von The Toasters

Well, I want to go to Rio
Spend a week in Paris, France
Slide off down to Haiti
And do some limbo dance
But I'm doing time in the city
I just don't understand
I should be lying on some beach
Writting love letters in the sand

Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA

So I dreamed a Greek vacation
And a holiday in Red Square
I ran straight to Soweto
So they could pull out all my hair
A camel ride in Egypt
A trek across the sand
I could be lying on some freak
And do some limbo dance

Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA

So I thought about a ticket
For a game of cricket
In a place called Pakistan
And sheik Ali would give me the key
To crib on his divan
We'd meet up with the Mexicans
And sign it over booze
And Ruby says
"This ain't no Port Air Prince"
Have you heard the news?

Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA

So whats up with Tanzania
Or may be Tenerife
I've got to catch a breather
Before I kick out someone's teeth
And you say you'll check me later
But I don't see quite how
How will you check me later
If you don't need me now?

Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
Weekend in LA
