Voodoo Version
(L.A won’t let me go
L.A owns my…)
Baby, baby one without a name
Can’t you see they’re pouring you down the drain
I know, I know, I know, I know (shhh)
Painted lady, crying there on the side
Poured her heart out, kissing him for a ride
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
Boy, tell me, tell me why are in it for the dough?
Tell me, tell me why are you selling out your soul?
Tell me, tell me why my baby?
I’ll do it, I’ll do it, I’ll do it, I’ll do what you say (ha)
L.A, L.A why are you tearing her apart?
L.A, L.A why are you spitting on her heart?
L.A, L.A why so shady?
She said: “L.A. made me”
She said: “L.A. made me”
(La, la, la)
Stranger, stranger told you what to say
Left in danger and took all your money
I know, I know, I know, I know (shhh)
Maybe, maybe leave without a sound
Watch yourself, L.A. don’t f-ck around
I know, I know , I know, I know
(Do you really understand?)
I know, I know , I know (ha)
Tell me, tell me why are in it for the dough?
Tell me, tell me why are you selling out your soul?

L.A, L.A why are you tearing her apart?
L.A, L.A why are you spitting on her heart?
L.A, L.A why so shady?
I’ll do it, I’ll do it, I’ll do it, I’ll do what you say
She said, she said
L.A. won’t let me go
L.A. owns my soul
(La, la, la)
