Gonna Sing ya a little song,
Bout a town that’s gone wrong,
Excuse me if sound upset,
But I lost me a lifelong bet!
You see I’m not an angry guy,
My feet are surely on the ground,
But funny when I do look around,
My eyes spin round and round!
And I’m talkin’ bout Van Nuys!
Where the smart folks got unwise
Livin’ in garbage, crime and flies
Under copters in the skies!
Pushin’ carts down the streets,
Pickin’ trash for tasty eats,
Sleepin’ in cars, drinkin’ in bars
Smokin’ at school, stealin’ them tools
And I’m talkin’ bout Van Nuys!
Where the smart folks got unwise
Runnin’ from houses, jumpin’ over mouses
Sprayin them tags, stealing’ them mags, wheels that is.
And I’m talking bout Van Nuys!
Where the smart folks got unwise
And no job needs a tie
Cause they hire any guy
If you stand near the cars drivin’ by.
Workin’ hard in the early morn,
Hustlin’ whores on the corn,
Makin’ moves for the porn,
Soberin’ up the forlorn,
See I’m talkin’ bout Van Nuys!
Where the smart folks got unwise!
