Arcadia Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My body is a map of LA
I stand straight like an angel with a halo
Hangin’ out the Hilton Hotel window
Screamin’, “Hey, you, baby, let’s go”
My chest, the Sierra Madre
My hips, every high and byway
That you trace with your fingertips like a Toyota
Run your hands over me like a Land Rover
[Chorus]
In Arcadia, Arcadia
All roads that lead to you as integral to me as arteries
That pump the blood that flows straight to the heart of me
America, America
I can’t sleep at home tonight, send me a Hilton Hotel
Or a cross on the hill, I’m a lost little girl
Findin’ my way to you, Arcadia
[Verse 2]
My body is a map of LA
And my heart is like paper, I hate you
I’m not from the land of the palms, so I know I can’t stay here
I’m not native, but
My curves, San Gabriel all day
And my lips like the fire licks the bay
If you think that you know yourself, you can come over
Lay your hands on me like you’re a Land Rover
[Chorus]
In Arcadia, Arcadia
All roads that lead to you as integral to me as arteries
That get the blood flowing straight to the heart of me
America, I need a miracle
I can’t sleep at home tonight, send me a Hilton Hotel
Or a cross on the hill, I’m a lost little girl
Findin’ my way to you, Arcadia
[Outro]
They built me up three-hundred feet tall just to tear me down
So I’m leavin’ with nothing but laughter, and this town
Arcadia
Findin’ my way to you
I’m leavin’ them as I was, five-foot-eight, Western belt
Plus the hate that they gave
By the way, thanks for that, on the way, I’ll pray for you
But you’ll need a miracle, America
