We Do It Different on the West Coast by The Mountain Goats Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2017

[Verse 1]
The papers write about it back in England
It's practically a lifestyle in Berlin
There's probably some pockets in Ohio
Almost always something happening in Ohio

I heard some bad reports about Long Island
I don't trust what people say about Long Island
I heard some good things from some friends about Chicago
I gotta see with my own eyes about Chicago

[Chorus]
We do it different on the West Coast
We do it different on the West Coast
We do it different on the West Coast
We do it different on the West Coast

[Verse 2]
I heard they had a problem with some skinheads
At a show in a machine shop in Pomona
I feel like half my friends have moved to San Francisco
I think I'm gonna bleach my hair this weekend
And Dave went to New York -- I don't care
You can't shut people up once they get back from their Christmas out there
Skim through such magazines as I can get my hands on
Glue circuit boards to plywood on the weekend
Trellis modulation for the children
There's a whole new world just up around the corner

[Chorus]
We do it different on the west coast
We do it different on the west coast
We do it different on the west coast
We do it different on the west coast

[Chorus]
We do it different on the west coast
We do it different on the west coast
We do it different on the west coast
We do it different on the west coast
