There's a fog upon LA
And my friends have lost their way
We'll be over soon, they said
Now, they've lost themselves instead
Please don't be long
Please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Or I may be asleep
Well, it only goes to show
And I told them where to go
Ask a p'liceman on the street
There's so many there to meet
Please don't be long (don't be long)
Please don't you be very long (don't be long)
Please don't be long
Or I may be asleep
Now, it's past my bed, I know, (know)
And I'd really like to go (go)
Soon will be the break of day (day)
Sitting here in Blue Jay Way (Way)
Please don't be long (don't be long)
Please don't you be very long (don't be long)
Please don't be long
Or I may be asleep
Please don't be long
Please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Please don't be long
Please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
