lyrics

It’s been cloudy since I moved to LA
They must’ve known that I was headed this way
Just ask Norman Lear
He’s been here for years
He says he’s never seen it this way
I hear the weather In Brooklyn’s been nice
Yeah they finally got rid of the mice
Since I’ve been gone
It didn’t take very long
So it’s no surprise to say
That’s it’s been cloudy since I moved to LA

Oh jealousy is such a tragedy
When the paradise you pine
Just becomes a place to a hide
The grass is always green
That’s how it’s meant to be
There’s no pot of gold waiting
Underneath the 103

Sometimes I think I’ll move to Cancun
Though I much prefer my living room
They got Fer de Lance snakes
And I got Jonathan Frakes
So there’s really no room for debate

And I’d love to go home back to Philly
To me there’s nowhere else quite as pretty
Please don’t judge me
I needed vitamin D
And I never intended to stay
But it’s been cloudy since I moved to LA

Oh jealousy is such a tragedy
When the people that you love
Don’t even seem quite good enough
The grass is always green
That’s how it’s mean to be
It doesn’t matter where you are
Unless you’re terraforming Mars


But Golden stars
And hip juice bars
Won’t ever cure my ails
And all the clowns in tinsel town
They only bring me down
So you see
Learn from me
It doesn’t make much sense
To take a plane
or change your name
To try and run away
Cause it’s been cloudy
Since I moved
To LA
Yeah it’s been cloudy
So fucking cloudy
Since I moved
To LA
