Sunland Basin Slump

Intro

Oh oh

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Dirt lot heat

Swelling under the smog and the bitter big sun

Cracked stucco skin

The cicadas are screaming for some water again

Pre-Chorus

Watch the palm trees lean

Watch the mountain turn gray

Watch the sprinklers hiss

Chorus

Welcome to the dry side

Of the burning hill

It is the dry side

It is staying still

Deep in Sunland

In the dirt and sand

Verse 2

Stood by the mall

Waiting for a ride that will never show up

Ten miles out

Trading my boredom for a cheap plastic cup

Pre-Chorus

Watch the asphalt melt

Watch the valley fold in

Watch the vultures circle

Chorus

Welcome to the dry side

Of the burning hill

It is the dry side

It is staying still

Deep in Sunland

In the dirt and sand

Bridge

Tujunga canyon ghosts are coming

Wash it all away

Wash it all away

Wash it all away

Chorus

Welcome to the dry side

Of the burning hill

It is the dry side

It is staying still

Deep in Sunland

In the dirt and sand

Hook

Way down

Way down

Way down in the basin

In the basin

In the basin

Sunland

Sunland

Sunland
