[00:00.01]Southern California Wants To Be Western New York - Dar Williams
[00:00.02]Written by:Dar William
[00:00.04]
[00:07.43]There's a part of the country
[00:09.48]Could drop off tomorrow in an earthquake
[00:12.24]
[00:12.90]Yeah it's out there on the cutting edge
[00:15.79]
[00:16.36]The people move the sidewalks shake
[00:18.49]
[00:19.16]And there's another part of the country
[00:21.05]
[00:21.98]With a land that gently creaks and thuds
[00:24.72]
[00:25.48]Where the heavy snows make faucets leak
[00:27.96]
[00:28.77]In bathrooms with free-standing tubs
[00:30.71]
[00:31.62]They're in houses that are haunted
[00:33.64]
[00:34.42]With the kids who lie awake and think about
[00:37.57]
[00:38.98]All the generations past
[00:40.42]
[00:40.96]Who used to use that dripping sink
[00:44.21]
[00:47.57]Sometimes one place wants
[00:49.17]To slip into the other just to see
[00:51.95]
[00:52.67]What it's like to trade its demons
[00:54.86]
[00:55.71]For the restless ghost of Mrs Ogilvy
[00:58.15]
[00:59.98]Used to pick the mint from her front yard
[01:02.60]
[01:03.16]To dress the Sunday pork
[01:04.60]
[01:05.57]Sometimes southern California wants
[01:07.46]
[01:08.42]To be western New York
[01:10.43]
[01:14.13]Wants to have a family business
[01:16.07]
[01:16.85]In sheet metal or power tools
[01:18.70]
[01:19.58]And it wants to have a diner
[01:21.74]
[01:22.65]Where the coffee tastes like diesel fuel
[01:25.33]
[01:26.00]And it wants to find the glory of a town
[01:29.26]
[01:29.84]They say has hit the skids
[01:31.63]
[01:32.30]And it wants to have a snow day
[01:35.18]That will turn its parents into kids
[01:37.53]
[01:38.52]And it's embarrassed but it's lusting
[01:40.58]
[01:41.33]After a suny student with mousy brown hair who is
[01:44.98]
[01:45.56]Taking out the compost
[01:46.83]
[01:47.77]Making coffee in long underwear
[01:49.76]
[01:54.44]And southern California says
[01:55.76]
[01:56.67]To save a place I'll meet you there
[01:59.59]
[02:00.71]And it tried to pack up its miata
[02:02.79]
[02:03.58]All it could fit was a prayer
[02:05.69]
[02:07.08]Sometimes the stakes are bogus
[02:08.68]
[02:09.68]Sometimes the fast lane hits a fork
[02:11.99]
[02:12.69]Sometimes southern California wants
[02:15.01]
[02:16.09]To be western New York
[02:17.80]
[02:21.69]Tempe Arizona thinks the Everglades
[02:23.78]
[02:25.35]Are greener and wetter
[02:26.37]
[02:27.06]And Washington D C thinks
[02:28.89]
[02:29.49]That Atlanta integrated better
[02:31.14]
[02:32.01]But I think that southern California
[02:34.67]
[02:36.60]Has more pain that we can say
[02:38.90]
[02:39.57]'Cause it wants to travel back in time
[02:42.48]But it just can't leave L A
[02:44.14]
[02:50.29]But now I hear they've got a theme park planned
[02:53.27]Designed to make you gasp and say
[02:55.44]
[02:56.99]Bet that crumbling mill town
[02:58.49]
[02:59.04]Was a booming mill town in its day
[03:01.60]
[03:02.51]Old investors scoff at this but the young ones
[03:06.28]
[03:06.82]Hope they'll take a chance
[03:08.29]
[03:08.82]And they promise it will make more dough
[03:12.07]Than Mickey Mouse in northern France
[03:14.31]
[03:15.05]And the planners got an opening day
[03:17.58]
[03:18.57]A town historian will host
[03:20.50]
[03:21.51]And the waitresses look like waitresses
[03:23.64]
[03:24.38]Who want to leave for the West Coast
[03:27.22]
[03:30.27]And they'll have puttering on rainy weekends
[03:32.71]
[03:33.50]Autumn days that make you feel sad
[03:35.95]
[03:36.53]They'll have hundred year old plumbing
[03:38.77]
[03:39.57]And the family you never had
[03:41.45]
[03:42.85]And a Hudson River clean-up concert
[03:45.28]
[03:46.06]And a bundle-bearing stork
[03:47.97]
[03:48.90]And I hear they've got a menu planned
[03:51.60]
[03:52.20]It's tray western New York western New York
