Well I love New York like everyone
And I go to Las Vegas to chill
I like Denver, Colorado cause it's so laid back
And Chicago keeps it real
Well I only leave Dallas when I have to but
When I do I like Tulsa OK
And I ain't got nothing against California but
I can't stand L.A
Well Orlando, Florida is humid but it's swell
Austin and Nashville both freaking rock (Yes they do)
And New Orleans is evil but it's part of the appeal
You can gamble drink and swear until you drop (Handbag)
The state of Ohio's been great to our band
Along with Philly and Green Bay (I like cheese)
I got nothing but love for Hollywood but
I can't stand L.A
I like Salt Lake City
Portland, Frisco, Santa Fe
Indianapolis, Hartford too
Boise, Memphis, Sioux Falls
And of course K.C
Along with Pittsburgh and Kalamazoo
Atlanta is a home away from home
And here's a shout out to Sauget
(We should take a moment to explain where Sauget is)
Oh yeah, it's in St. Louis
And I wish my friends would leave that place cause
I can't stand L.A
Traffic sucks
No protected lefts (Yeah but road rage is so cool)
Snooty fucks
Pollution fills the air (Can I even smoke outside?)
Gang fights
Seven dollar beers (That fucking sucks)
And the threat of breaking off into the sea
And now to give Los Angeles the Benefit of a doubt (What?)
Jimmy Kimmel, In and Out, and great sushi
And diversity everywhere
Really hot chicks wearing next to nothing
And the Santa Monica Pier
Thank you for hair metal and the '84 Olympics
And for BFS radio play
Oh and please don't take this personally
No I'm happy to visit but I'm happier to leave
And I guess what it is I'm trying to say is
I can't stand L.A
