Out in L.A. Lyrics
We're all a bunch of brothers livin' in a cool way
Along with six million others in this place called L.A.
L.A. is the place, sets my mind ablaze
For me, it's a race through a cotton pickin' maze
The town makes me jump, it's got a bunch of bad chicks
Well sure, it's got some chumps but I still get my kicks
My body loves to scrump when I lick the ripe pick
Like a come on a thumb
Poppin' hump, hump, hump, pop out
The action never stops, I'm as wild as can be
'Cos I'm shooting for the top and my best friend is Flea
Oom Chucka Willy knew the balls to pop
But he never met the Tree so he never be-bopped out hop!
Antwan the Swan, from the pretty fish pond
Was a bad mother jumper, you could tell he was strong
He war a cold paisley jacket and a hellified hat
And between his legs was a sweat young lass
He threw a hundred women up against the wall
And he swore to fear that he'd love 'em all
By the time he got to ninety nine, he had to stop
Because that's when he thought that he heard a phone
Last night and the night before, I heard a
Fop outside, then I came in doors
Freak out!
Now that I told you a little something about the Flea
A little something about the Tree, a little something about me
I can't leave you hangin' but my man Shermzy, he swings the yang, he bangs the yang
And now, it's time to hear him do his playin', you better be burning Sherman!
We're all a bunch of brothers livin' in a cool way
Along with six million others in this place called L.A.
Step out!
Along with six million others in this place called L.A.
For me, it's a race through a cotton pickin' maze
Well sure, it's got some chumps but I still get my kicks
My body loves to scrump when I lick the ripe pick
Like a come on a thumb
Poppin' hump, hump, hump, pop out
'Cos I'm shooting for the top and my best friend is Flea
Oom Chucka Willy knew the balls to pop
But he never met the Tree so he never be-bopped out hop!
Was a bad mother jumper, you could tell he was strong
He war a cold paisley jacket and a hellified hat
And between his legs was a sweat young lass
And he swore to fear that he'd love 'em all
By the time he got to ninety nine, he had to stop
Because that's when he thought that he heard a phone
Fop outside, then I came in doors
Freak out!
A little something about the Tree, a little something about me
I can't leave you hangin' but my man Shermzy, he swings the yang, he bangs the yang
And now, it's time to hear him do his playin', you better be burning Sherman!

antoine the swan, lol thats what they used to call anthony... i guess in later years he decided he was "sir psycho sexy" but antoine the swan is anthony... hahahah and i guess he's referring to how many women he can get which is SO TRUE i'd fuck him in a second
Out in LA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First song they made, and I wish they kept the funny nicknames they made for each other. Anthony talked a lot about this in his autobio, about him not liking Sherman (drummer) and thought he was a loser.
Great song, very funky. Perfection. A good start to greatness.
The first song they ever made...the one that gave birth to the best band in the world!
a-men to the last comment! the song has so much more charisma on 'out in l.a.' (the album) with hillel on guitar than it does on 'the red hot chili peppers' (the album) with the replacment guitarist. anyone agee?
Hell yeah man hiller had his own crazy style the demo version is so Much better than the one on their first album
Hell yeah man hiller had his own crazy style the demo version is so Much better than the one on their first album
Anthony's singing was better on the Out In L.A. album too. (the lyrics changes a little bit too)
This song just tells you about who they are.... sorry, I had to say it 'cause no one else said anything :-P
