Dreaming in LA

A little tale about living in LA Fancy cars and envy Spinning wheels and breaks Tommy got a six string Sheila got a G-string Money, fame and a pipe dream Whatever it takes All for 15 minutes or flavor of the week Tommy became a rocker Sheila became a freak When they finally met There were sparks in the air A chance to hit the big time and do it as a pair Don't wanna be Waiting for fortune and fame Don't wanna be Bound by the rules of the game Don't want to be A poser with a name Dreaming in LA Tommy got a record deal Went right up his nose Sheila was an actor On reality shows They dropped him off the label They pushed her out the door They were hanging out on Sunset Begging for more Don't wanna be Waiting for fortune and fame Don't wanna be Bound by the rules of the game Don't want to be A poser with a name Dreaming in LA Don't wanna be Don't wanna be a wanna be Eleven years later They were sitting at a bar Came to a realization They weren't getting too far So they threw in the towel They were done with LA Packed up their dreams and faded away Don't wanna be Waiting for fortune and fame Don't wanna be Bound by the rules of the game Don't want to be A poser with a name Dreaming in LA Lights Camera Action
