[00:20.899]There was a time
[00:23.384]When lions would roam the Miracle Mile
[00:31.082]Before the high-rises went up
[00:36.973]They roamed wild
[00:41.595]Nothing remains, bones in the ground
[00:46.824]Swallowed in tar
[00:51.819]American Lions walking the earth
[00:57.048]Where offices are
[01:23.219]Lions that strode
[01:25.664]The color of wheat in forgotten days
[01:33.480]Before the ice
[01:36.090]Before it became Santy Claus Lane
[01:43.869]I've been to the zoo, looked through the bars
[01:49.025]It isn't the same
[01:54.291]Crosses my mind
[01:57.374]While I wait for the lights to change
[02:05.958]Ooh
[02:16.231]Ooh
[02:35.073]When I was nineteen, I lived on the roof
[02:40.449]Shirtless and brown
[02:45.548]Prying the old shakes from the nail
[02:50.697]Hurling them down
[02:55.764]Smelling like tar
[02:58.410]Smelling like Wilshire Boulevard
[03:05.973]Imagining lions in Koreatown
[03:11.034]It isn't so hard
[03:17.718]Ooh
[03:27.999]Ooh
[03:57.133]The blue Valiant sparked with the flip of a switch
[04:02.322]And the highway was ours
[04:07.289]And over the ridge, the sky was all pitch
[04:12.430]The valley on fire
[04:17.733]Stayed up all night, you and I
[04:22.803]Throwing the cards
[04:27.901]Making up songs, the lions long gone
[04:32.804]The city still roars
[04:39.424]Ooh
[04:49.691]Ooh
[05:10.037]Ooh

There was a time
When lions would roam the Miracle Mile
Before the high-rises went up
They roamed wild
Nothing remains, bones in the ground
Swallowed in tar
American Lions walking the earth
Where offices are
Lions that strode
The color of wheat in forgotten days
Before the ice
Before it became Santy Claus Lane
I've been to the zoo, looked through the bars
It isn't the same
Crosses my mind
While I wait for the lights to change
Ooh
Ooh
When I was nineteen, I lived on the roof
Shirtless and brown
Prying the old shakes from the nail
Hurling them down
Smelling like tar
Smelling like Wilshire Boulevard
Imagining lions in Koreatown
It isn't so hard
Ooh
Ooh
The blue Valiant sparked with the flip of a switch
And the highway was ours
And over the ridge, the sky was all pitch
The valley on fire
Stayed up all night, you and I
Throwing the cards
Making up songs, the lions long gone
The city still roars
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
