Down the street with the Kosher shops

Past the rummage yards with the antique props

All line up in the LA gauntlet

The beginning of success and failure

At 200 South La Brea

Changed her name and headed to the city

They say: "Can you sing?" and "Can you cry?" and

"Will you take off your top if the price is right?"

"Do you smoke?" and "Do you drink?"

At 200 South La Brea
