Lyrics
Vivian Verse: People come by the busload dreamin of sunnier days Life in a suitcase hopin to find their way It’s a roller coaster and it doesn’t take long Before lines start fadin between right and wrong Somehow LA sells dreams of bein made But LA always falls short and the dreams color grey You say youre rising now Well this town has a way of knockin you down Youre a real good looker now But in this town beauty gets lost in the crowd CHORUS: Oh Vivian Youre a small town girl and no one really counts in LA And girl Don’t you think its strange that no one born here ever stays No one born here ever stays Sometimes LA changes who you think you are Out in the nightclubs on Hollywood Boulevard One day and youre a star The next day panic cuz you’ve fallin so far Doin things that youll regret And hopin these pills will make you forget BRIDGE back at home you know things don’t really change the problems you ran from have finally gone their way your family and friends still think youre a star not because of who you know but because of who you are if that don’t matter to you then maybe you should stay yeah maybe LA has gotten to you so stay bein somebody aint really nobody in LA bein somebody aint really nobody in LA (CHORUS) oh Vivian youre a smalltown girl so stop tryin to be “LA” and girl youre teeny tiny little world is about to fall down if you stay
