Lyrics[]
Will:
Hate New York City
It's cold and it's damp
And all the people dress like monkeys
Let's leave Chicago to the Eskimos
That town's a little bit too rugged
For you and me, bad girl
Blaine:
Rollin' down Imperial Highway
With a big nasty red-head at my side
Artie:
Santa Ana winds blowin' hot from the north
And we were born to ride
Will:
Roll down the window, put down the top
Crank up the Beach Boys
Baby, don't let the music stop
We're gonna ride it 'til we
Just can't ride it no more
Blaine:
From the South Bay to the Valley
From the West Side to the East Side
Blaine with Artie:
Everybody, very happy
Cause the sun is shining all the time
Blaine with New Directions (New Directions):
Looks like another perfect day
I love L.A. (Na-na-na-nana, na-na-na-na-nana-nana)
We love it (Na-na-na-nana, na-na-na-na-nana-nana) (Artie: Yeah!)
(Artie: I love L.A.) (Na-na-na-nana, na-na-na-na-nana-nana) (Artie: Woo-hoo)
We love it (Na-na-na-nana, na-na-na-na-nana-nana) (Artie: Yeah, yeah)
We love it
Jake:
Look at that mountain
Look at those trees
Blaine:
Look at that bum over there, man
He's down on his knees
Sam:
Look at these women
Ain't nothin' like 'em nowhere
New Directions:
Ain't nothin' like 'em
Na-na-na-na-nana-nana

Century Boulevard (Na-na-na-nana, na-na-na-na-nana-nana) (We love it)
