Warren Zevon — Join Me in L.A. Live Wmmr-Fm

[Intro] Alright, hey [Verse 1] They say this place is evil That ain't why I stay 'Cause I found something That will never be nothing And I found it in L.A [Verse 2] It was midnight in Topanga I heard the DJ say "There's a full moon rising Join me in L.A." Why don't you join me in L.A? Let's go [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] I was at the Tropicana, that's a hotel On a dark and sultry day Had to call somebody long distance I said, "Join me in L.A." Join me in L.A Here I come [Instrumental Break] [Outro] Hey, I'd like to introduce the killer elite to you, please. On the far right, our lead guitarist, is formally a spare part conventionalist, the man who spent so much time in England that he's got eh, Guinness stout running through his veins instead of blood. Our mid-Atlantic man is Jerry Donahue. On the drums, our small arms expert, and I think eh, Robert Deniro molded his characterization in Taxi Driver after this gentleman. Ah, what more can I say? Used to play Linda Ronstadt, a lot of pretty wonderful people. This is Mickey McGee right here. On the bass, I think you might know this gentleman already. Ever heard the song "You Asshole You"? You home! He's played with a lot of people, and he's also a fine songwriter. You notice I left the pause there to let you react whatever they wanted to? A fine songwriter, a great singer, and a very good friend of mine: it's Doug Haywood on bass. Alright, let's double down. I had a joke all prepared for this spot, I was afraid. Go ahead, Doug. Why you seem to be tickled up with that. (Come on) Now they want it, now they want it. No, it's too long, it's a twenty-minute. Yeah, that's good, just tell the punchline. No, tell the punchline. You better watch that shit
