My body is a map of L.A
I stand straight like an angel, with a halo
Hangin' out the Hilton Hotel window
Screamin', "Heyo, baby, let's go"
My body is a map of L.A
I stand straight like an angel, with a halo
Hangin' out the Hilton Hotel window
Screamin', "Heyo, 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 ya
Arcadia
[Verse 2]
My body is a map of L.A
And my heart is like paper, I hate ya
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 ya
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 ya
I'm leavin' them as I was, five foot eight
Western bound, plus the hate that they gave
By the way, thanks for that, on the way, I'll pray for ya
But you’ll need a miracle
America
Moje tijelo je karta L.A
Stojim ravno kao anđeo, s aureolom
Izlazeći kroz prozor hotela Hilton
Vrištanje, "Hej, dušo, idemo"
Moja prsa, Sierra Madre
Moji kukovi, svaki visoko i usput
To vrhovima prstiju pratite kao Toyotu
Rukama prelazi preko mene poput Land Rovera
[Refren]
U Arkadiji, Arkadiji
Svi putevi koji vode do tebe su mi sastavni dio poput arterija
To pumpa krv koja teče ravno u moje srce
Amerika, Amerika
Ne mogu večeras spavati kod kuće, pošaljite mi hotel Hilton
Ili križ na brdu, ja sam izgubljena djevojčica
Tražim svoj put do tebe
Arkadija
[2. stih]
Moje tijelo je karta L.A
I srce mi je poput papira, mrzim te
Nisam iz zemlje palmi pa znam da ne mogu ostati ovdje
Nisam domorodac, ali
Moje obline, San Gabriel cijeli dan
I moje usne poput vatre ližu zaljev
Ako mislite da poznajete sebe, možete doći
Položi ruke na mene kao da si Land Rover
[Refren]
U Arkadiji, Arkadiji
Svi putevi koji vode do tebe su mi sastavni dio poput arterija
Zbog toga mi krv teče ravno u srce
Ameriko, treba mi čudo
Ne mogu večeras spavati kod kuće, pošaljite mi hotel Hilton
Ili križ na brdu, ja sam izgubljena djevojčica
Tražim svoj put do tebe
Arkadija
[Outro]
Izgradili su me do tri stotine stopa samo da me sruše
Tako da odlazim samo sa smijehom, i ovaj grad
Arkadija
Tražim svoj put do tebe
Ostavljam ih onakve kakve sam bio, pet metara osam
Zapadno vezani, plus mržnja koju su dali
Usput, hvala ti na tome, usput ću se moliti za tebe
Ali trebat će vam čudo
Amerika
