Well you moved to LA 
First time under the law
Yeah, you had your fun
So you thought it time to move on
But the pretty girls from the underworld made it easier said than done
Yeah, soon enough you were hangin' out
You were back where you'd begun
But maybe it's alright now

Well it rained three days and the street began to flood
Everyone took off, they said they had enough
Since 26, since forty licks, ya been moving through the fog
Yeah, you never said what you really meant
Did you think that it would stop?
But maybe it's alright now
Baby, it' alright now

By the pinball lights
Ya got petrified
You're glass in hand, just staring at the walls
You could try to change
But you just stay strange
And drink away the emptiness, paranoid, the S.A.S
Will end the game by kicking in your door

By the pinball lights
Ya got petrified
You're glass in hand, just staring at the walls
Yeah, you just stay strange
And you call her name
But sonny, she can't hear you anymore
Sonny, she can't hear you anymore

When the lights go down on Broadway
I can still hear all the things you used to say
From out my window
Watch the fires burn down the road
At times I wonder if you're listening, now I know
At times I wonder if you hear me, now I know
