I've got a love and hate relationship with LA
Off the plane, paint my face in the car, park my heart at the valet
I watch the sun sink down over Santa Monica Boulevard
When I'm lonely and I'm missin' home
But other times, I feel like my blood is runnin' Cali
I've got some famous friends that I could call
But I don't know if I'm cool enough
And what's worse than spendin' time alone
Is one of them not pickin' up
It's hard to grow and time to go
But some days I wanna stay
I've got a love and hate relationship with LA
(You got a love and hate relationship with LA)
I wonder if I'll get invited to the party
(I wonder if I'll get invited to the party)
Yeah, and if I do, will I go?
If I go, will I know somebody? (Will I know somebody?)
I'm on my third glass of wine tryin' to find conversation in a room with bigger names
But other days, I'm lookin' out for real estate
Confetti's fallin', friends are callin', saw me on the TV
But if I let down my hair in the ocean air
Will Tennessee be mad at me?
Yeah, I know it ain't a one-way road
But sometimes, it feels that way
I've got a love and hate relationship with LA
(I've got a love and hate relationship with LA)
Yeah, ooh, ooh
Yeah, ooh, ooh
And sometimes it feels like it's all real
But nothin' here is as it seems
I ask myself, "Does it feed my soul or my anxiety?"
Carpet's red, ego's fed, but it's myself that I have to face
I've got a love and hate relationship with LA
(You got a love and hate relationship with LA)
(Yeah, ooh) I've got a love and hate relationship with LA, LA
(Yeah, ooh) I've got a love and hate relationship with LA, LA
(Yeah, ooh) I've got a love and hate relationship with LA, LA
(Yeah, ooh) I've got a love and hate relationship with LA, LA
