Bm               Em
Whiplash in the dead of night,
A               D 
Down on Sunset dynamite,
G                       Em              A
Blinding lights on the Marquee shining bright.

There's George on his knees again,
On the town with Miss Zimmerman,
Alert the media and then my friend.


[Chorus]

Dm           Gm          C          F
Ooh la la in L.A., Ooh la la in the U.S.A.
Bb                       Gm                A  
One night stands with a one night band is this

Ooh la la in L.A., Ooh la la in the U.S.A.
Making out every turned on a hit and miss.


[Verse]

You see the food and you feel the force,
B.L.T. and there ain't no sauce,
You get enough to feed a horse that's true.

Down at Barney's playing pool,
Minnesota Fats is ulta cool,
A load of balls make you look a fool then you.


[Chorus]

Dm           Gm          C          F
Ooh la la in L.A., Ooh la la in the U.S.A.
Bb                       Gm                A
One night stands with a one night band is this

Ooh la la in L.A., Ooh la la in the U.S.A.
Making out every turned on a hit and miss.


[Verse]

Runaway on the radio,
A powerplay every hour or so,
A never ending red eyed T.V. show.


[Chorus]

Dm           Gm          C          F
Ooh la la in L.A., Ooh la la in the U.S.A.
Bb                       Gm                A
One night stands with a one night band is this
