Various trips California Hawaii



You know how one thing leads to another? John was watching Ray Donovan and I heard this song playing in the background and it caught my attention so I googled it naturally!

Desperados Under the Eaves by Warren Zevon

I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel

I was staring in my empty coffee cup
I was thinking that the gypsy wasn't lyin'
All the salty margaritas in Los Angeles
I'm gonna drink 'em up

And if California slides into the ocean

Like the mystics and statistics say it will
I predict this motel will be standing until I pay my bill

Don't the sun look angry through the trees

Don't the trees look like crucified thieves
Don't you feel like Desperados under the eaves
Heaven help the one who leaves

Still waking up in the mornings with shaking hands
And I'm trying to find a girl who understands me
But except in dreams you're never really free
Don't the sun look angry at me
