There's a fog upon L.A.

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 policeman 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 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
