West of PCH I wanna live my life west of PCH With the missile commander, I'm seeing lights in the sky with my psychic eye, I got my astral projection, I need a new sound-sation for my hungry mind Or I'll die of starvation, The meaning of life's an alternate groove And it's gone in a moment, Go ask the theologian. The millipede leads an alien invasion, we'll make our stand on Redondo Pier, My tractor-beam is aiming for the coastline, I wanna live my life west of PCH. The unseen hand has a house on the strand, He's the king of the harbor, I can't remember if it's either / or, But paranoia is normal, The masonic lodge and the shadow band, are keeping it secret, The skating circle is on sacred grounds, The truth is beneath it, No you cannot escape it. IIOED and the Missile Commander, We'll take the beach at Manhattan Pier, Trackball in my hand, I am the fabulous disaster, I wanna live my life west of PCH. In my imagination Life is so beautiful, I see a black hole turning, Recording all of you, Something is so familiar, Something keeps us apart, From alpha to omega, Take me back to the start. I'm the Millipede leading an alien invasion, I'll see you there on Hermosa Pier, My teenage dream is rising from the ocean, I wanna live my life west of PCH

4.	Looking for Love (In all the Wrong Places) 02:16	lyrics	buy track
Down at Sharkies on the Pier, Larry's a real ladies-man, Rocking the leisure suit, in white polyester with ultra-wide shoulder pads, If love is a game, Larry plays to score, Posting on Craig's List, No Strings Attached in the Land of Lounge Lizards. True love Is waiting for a green light, Searching for the perfect girl, He's got to be Mr. Right, Just a sucker for a pretty face, Can we take it back to your place? I can't get enough, Of looking for love in all the wrong places. He finds a Daddy's girl, who's easily attached, If she doesn't get her way, She will key his car and delete him on facebook, Bottles of champagne, Acting like he's won the lottery, Shopping at Tiffany's, She charged it to his room and lost him on the dance floor. True love Is waiting for a green light, He's searching through the classifieds, Looking for the perfect bride, It could start as something casual, That turns into something long-term, He can't get enough, Of looking for love in all the wrong places, Bad girls Never come in last, When he wants to settle down, She pawns his ring and moves on to the next clown, True love Is waiting for a green light, He is searching for the perfect girl, He's got to be Mr. Right, Just a sucker for a pretty face, Can we take it back to your place? I can't get enough Of looking for love in all the wrong places.
5.	Living on Adrenaline 01:15	lyrics	buy track
Friday night and I'm looking for action Drag-race on Pershing Blvd. Feel the rush of the acceleration Renegade under the LAX stars Step on the gas and take the lead You can try but you can't catch me Feel the world turn inside my mind Synapses fire for the very first time Living on Adrenaline (x4), you gotta fight to survive Main Street and the laws of attraction Somehow trouble always finds you Try to walk in the other direction Let someone else pay their dues Ghosts in the sand looking up at me Trapped in a struggle for eternity Feel alive as the moment arrives You can run or you can fight to survive Living on Adrenaline (x4), you gotta fight to survive
6.	Back Together Again 01:57	lyrics	buy track
We've been gone for awhile, had to get our own place, had to find a garage, had to get our own space. We got a room full of amps Where we turn it up loud, The PA feeds back, But it's part of the sound, The South Bay's calling And the Brixton's sold out, It's Locals Only When we're at the Lighthouse, Down at Keegan's Pub with Felony Ron, We're gonna give 'em hell 'Cause we're HF&L, We're not like the bands who the labels invent, We're the punks next door who ignore your complaints, The neighbors say we're disturbing the peace, But we got a permit You can call the police, The HOA asked us to leave so we threw a party That was BYOB, We called up all our friends Bought a couple of kegs, We were pool-side drinking to 60 days of free rent. And we don't worry, we've got nothing to hide, We've got nowhere to go, because we've already arrived. Back together again, yeah, we're back together again. Together again, yeah, we're back together again, South Bay for life.
7.	Gotta Go 01:23	lyrics	buy track
Black out Walking back home On imperial I'm invisible I gotta go, gotta go I gotta go, gotta go After dark Down in Rec Park We're a brotherhood It's our neighborhood I gotta go, gotta go I gotta go, gotta go Under the fence Crawled inside By the devil's horns A secret corridor I gotta go, gotta go I gotta go, gotta go Remember when you said you'd never go home That you'd rather be alone That you'd make it on your own Well you finally got your way //verse 2 Jump the gate Inside the Grand Tropez We were trespassers We were Raiders I gotta go, gotta go I gotta go, gotta go On the stairs Behind the blinds We would hide there We would spy there I gotta go, gotta go I gotta go, gotta go Take a chance Learn to slam dance It's anarchy At Velocity Remember when you said you'd never go home That you'd rarther be alone That you'd make it on your own Well you finally got your way

I see the challenge I keep my eye on the prize I like the competition It helps me realize The only person in this world Who can hold me back Lives deep inside of me I can channel all the power in my heart It's razor sharp I control my reality //chorus It's intangible It's intentional I'm invincible Never scratch on the eight ball I'm delusional I'm irrational Incomprehensible Never scratch on the eight ball I feel the pain It only drives me more I won't let my strength fail I'm going to settle the score I have this feeling That I know will never leave me It lives deep inside my soul I close my eyes and focus I can find it in the moment I will acheive this goal I'm intangible I'm intentional I'm invincible I never scratch on the eight ball I'm delusional I'm irrational Incomprehensible I never scratch on the eight ball
9.	Family 02:27	lyrics	buy track
I roamed from Venice to Malaga Cove And back again to El Segundo From PCH to the beach Growing up on the South Bay streets Joined a punk bank and played every dive Hauled my amp up the 405 Dropped fliers at Restyle This is for my friends who made it worthwile Don't feed your heart to the sharks Don't let them tear your dreams apart I've got you and you've got me We are all one family I moved into the great unknown And lived my life from show to show I've got your back and you've got mine Spent every day on the strand getting high Joined a punk bank and played every dive Hauled my amp up the 405 Dropped fliers at Restyle This is for my friends who made it worthwile Don't feed your heart to the sharks Don't let them tear your dreams apart I've got you and you've got me We are all one family
10.	Friends Forever 01:52	lyrics	buy track
It didn't take us long to find the edge of the world What would happen now When we looked down We couldn't wait to share what we found One by one, we brought our friends here And ignored our fears As we stepped nearer Was it really such a bad idea? We were friends forever And I wish that you were here In the back of my mind for eleven years I wonder why it was you If it was me what would you do? I've felt guilt and you've been missed You saved my from the precipise We were running down the Dunes It's how I remember you We would walk out on the pier Look at the sky and wonder why? You never get to say goodbye We were friends forever

I'm living at home Don't need to clean my clothes I'm watching TV I record over your shows I'm raiding the fridge I'm drinking your last beer Don't treat me like a child Or else I'll go wild I need therapy For my anxiety I need a 2nd opinion I need a new prescription Entitlementia Spreading like bacteria There's no panacea For workaphobia I'm driving your car You'll find its out of gas I'm using your phone I'm drinking from your glass I'm raiding the fridge I'm drinking your last beer Don't treat me like a child Or else I'll go wild I need therapy For my anxiety Don't need a 2nd opinion I need a new prescription Entitlementia Spreading like bacteria There's no panacea For workaphobia
12.	Eye of the Storm 02:13	lyrics	buy track
Sometimes life is unexpected It can throw you a curve-ball You can go from the top of the world To crawling on the floow An unstoppable force on an unchanging course We will ride through the eye of the storm We won't conform, we will break through the wall We'll ride through the eye of the storm We've all been there where you have to start again And pick yourself off the ground What's important is you don't give in It's what makes you a better man An unstoppable force on an unchanging course We will ride through the eye of the storm We won't conform, we will break through the wall We'll ride through the eye of the storm I won't let them get the best of me I won't lie down and say quit I know that I'll find an alternative I know that I'm stronger than this An unstoppable force on an unchanging course We will ride through the eye of the storm We won't conform, we will break through the wall We'll ride through the eye of the storm
13.	Weekend 01:01	lyrics	buy track
Cruising down the strand when the sun goes down on Hermosa Beach The punk rockers on the block are spinning Iggy Pop The god-father of rock 'n' roll Dancing with my girl when we're out on the town at the underground Knee-high socks as we do the Cretin Hop to the endless summer night Another endless summer night Weekend, live and die for the Weekend, never sleep on the weekend
