Correction Lyrics East Coast or West Coast by Rivers Cuomo

Lyrics

I finally found a girl to love
It's time for me to settle down
The trouble is that I can't decide
Where to spend the rest of my life
At first I thought I wanted to be
One more east coast family
But now I'm not so sure anymore
Which coast I love more

East coast or west coast?
East coast or west coast?

The east is where your family is
It's where you grew up
Where you raise you kids
The west is where you paid your dues
Made your namе and had your breakthroughs

The east has a morе intellectual bent
The west has winners bound for success
I know that's stale but I can't decide
Where I want to reside
East coast or west coast?
East coast or west coast?

I'm so sick of moving around
Once and for all I wanna settle down
Moved so much when I was a kid
Always trying to make new friends

If it's roots that you want, come on
The west is where you lived for so long
It's got your bros and your doctor too
The hairstylist that perfected your 'do
No, that ain't nothing that you should mind
Think of the ironwood trees that you climbed
When you were a kid and the seasons would change
It just ain't right when they stay the same

East coast or west coast?
East coast or west coast?

Think of the times that you had in the west
The chicks that randomly showed you their breasts
When you walked in the streets in the city at night
Looking for someone to make you feel (alright)
Think of your mom and think of your dad
Don't you think you oughta' pay them back?
And help them find their happiness
And they can help with the kids
East coast or west coast?
East coast or west coast?

How could you raise your kids in the east?
Don't you remember how you would weep?
And the backwards, bigoted, bully creeps
You should find some alternative beat
If alternative means don't serve produce
Then, by all means, go ahead and move
But how sad it would've been if you'd blown your youth
Trying to outdo the cool

East coast or west coast?
East coast or west coast?

Now hold on, guys, let's give it a rest
I like both coasts, the east and the west
I'll have to think on this for a while
And ask myself with smile:

East coast or west coast?
(Where can I do my best?)
East coast or west coast?
(Where can I give my best?)
I think you know where you wanna live, bro
Aw, shut... the... shut up
