"Hey Mike! Welcome back to L.A.! How you doing?"
I guess I'm famous again

But really its my last chance to stave off the fear
Of being famous again

These people want a fucking show? Okay
Shave it all off!
Hey, Mike are- are you okay? Are you sure?
Just shave it all off!

This isn't going to look good. You're making a mistake
And who are you to tell me that i'm wrong? (I'm just trying to be your friend and let you know)
I never really liked you anyway (Mike thats not true. Take that back.)
Just shave it all off
You're just another girl now with a song (Really, chill out)
And I'm just another sad man in L.A. (Don't say that. Come on.)

You texted her?
I know I'm a bad person
But it all felt cursed when she would sit around and drink and shit
You can't be rescued by a sinking ship
Thats true
So I pushed what i loved away (but why?)
Some people can't take L.A. (that's a cop-out)
I guess that I was one of 'em (that's bullshit)
It's not bullshit I'm one of them (I think you messed up)
But who are you to tell me that I'm wrong
She never really liked me anyway
Just shave it all off
She's just another girl now with a song
And i'm just another sad man in L.A
Okay
Shave it all off
Okay, here goes
Do you want the top a little longer? like maybe a number 1 or some- number 2?
