Woke up this mornin'
Jumped to my feet
Ran to the window
And down in the street

The paperboy was jumpin'
Like a monkey on a leash
Yellin', read all about it
Read all about it
Slow burn in L.A. town
Slow burn in L.A. town

Down on Sunset
In the summertime
It gets so hot you think you're goin' blind
Little girls all dressed up
And they're ready to go out
Makes me wanna shout
Makes me wanna shout

Slow burn in L.A. town
Slow burn in L.A. town

You've got nowhere to go
No one to go there with
Ain't nobody cares about anything you did
Lookin' for trouble
You've got plenty on your mind
Now we'll read all about it
Read all about it, baby

Slow burn in L.A. town
Slow burn in L.A. town
