Jimmy Becker - 9884

September 8 1984, Paradise California
Took a Greyhound to LA
Pack of Marlboros and my axe
To Hollywood, 5am
1145 North Sycamore
Knocked on the door
Gordon Wall looked at me like what the hell are you here for?

Took a Greyhound to LA
Left Paradise for the city of angels
Left my hometown for LA
Mama I'm here to stay
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Remember The Central up on Sunset
Becky serving up Kamikazes
Flies on Fire baptized over Elvis Presley's grave
Down at Raji's
Madame Wong's
Trash made Replacements sound like Mozart
Imagine Axl Rose singing You Can't Always Get What You Want
At No Amp Night

So many names you'll never know
Some made it big
Some I don't know
I feel so shameless
But here it goes

Phlegm Throwers
Flies On Fire
Barnburners
Separate Beds
Darius
Nikita
Natalie Pace
Candy
Ashes
Chuck E Weiss and the Goddamn Liars
Singing his ass off
Singing his ass off
Forgot about David Zazloff!
