New England to Hollywood, seems so far away Like all roads lead us to California It's a long, long way to Paradise isn't it? In the never-ending search for perfection And it seems like an eternity since we first turned the ignition And made our way down the highway Because I told you lies It seems a never-ending lonesome drive But now the road is getting clear The exit sign is very near The empty spaces will lead us 'round Hope we can find our new hometown It's a long drive home to Tarzana But once we're there we will see there's nothing there Except that space, beautiful space We drove so far to find this place It's a long drive home to Tarzana This spaced-out community All freeways lead to Tarzana No more ghettoes or urban sprawl It's fine with me It's fine with me It's a long, long way to paradise isn't it?
