[Verse]
D
Down the street with the Kosher shops
G E
Past the rummage yards with the antique props
D
Beauty queens and homesick harlots
G E
All line up in the LA gauntlet
D
It's the corner where dreams are made
G E
Where flaws are fixed up with pills and powder
D
The beginning of success and failure
G E D
At 200 South La Brea
D
Changed her name and headed to the city
G E
Took out that loan and bought herself a Mini
D
Recites lines at the grocery store and then
G E
Quotes old movies at table 4
D
They say: "Can you sing?" and "Can you cry?" and
G E
"Will you take off your top if the price is right?"
D
"Do you smoke?" and "Do you drink?"
G E
And "Do you wash your spoons in the bathroom sink?"
D
These are questions
G E
At 200 South La Brea
D
Obsessions
G E
At 200 South La Brea
