Weekend In L.A.

[Intro]
Arriba

[Verse 1]
Well, I want to go to Rio
Spend a week in Paris, France
Slide off down to Haiti
And do some limbo dance
But I'm doing time in the city
I just don't understand
I should be lying on the beach
Writing love letters in the sand

[Chorus]
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.

[Verse 2]
So I dreamed a Greek vacation
And a holiday in Red Square
And I ran straight to Soweto
So they could pull out all my hair
A camel ride in Egypt
A trek across the sand
But some say, "Yo, wait a minute
It's not quite as we planned"

[Chorus]
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.

[Verse 3]
So I thought about a ticket for a game of cricket
In a place called Pakistan
And Sheik Ali would give me the key
To crib on his divan
We'd meet up with the Mexicans
Sign in over brews
But Lionel said, "This ain't no Port Au Prince"
Have you heard the news?

[Chorus]
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.

[Verse 4]
So what's up with Tanzania
Or maybe Tenerife?
I've got to catch a breather
Before I kick out someone's teeth
And you say you'll check me later
But I don't see quite how
How will you check me later
If you don't need me now?

[Chorus]
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.
Weekend in L.A.

[Outro]
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
