I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel 
I was staring in my empty coffee cup 
I was thinking that the gypsy wasn't lyin'
All the salty margaritas in Los Angeles 
I'm gonna drink 'em up

And if California slides into the ocean 
Like the mystics and statistics say it will
I predict this motel will be standing until I pay my bill

Don't the sun look angry through the trees
Don't the trees look like crucified thieves 
Don't you feel like Desperados under the eaves 
Heaven help the one who leaves

Still waking up in the mornings with shaking hands 
And I'm trying to find a girl who understands me 
But except in dreams you're never really free 
Don't the sun look angry at me

I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel
I was listening to the air conditioner hum 
It went mmmmmm..
........................... Look
away.......................................... 
(Look away down Gower Avenue, Look away....)
