East Coast Vs. West Coast lyrics - Weezer

I finally found a girl to love

It's time for me to settle down

The trouble is that I can't decide

Where to spend the rest of my life

At first I thought I wanted to be

One more east coast family

But now I'm not so sure anymore

Which coast I love more

East coast or west coast?

The east is where your family is

It's where you grew up

Where you raise you kids

The west is where you paid your dues

Made your name and had your breakthroughs

The east has a more intellectual bent

The west has winners bound for success

I know that's stale but I can't decide

Where I want to reside

East coast or west coast?

I'm so sick of moving around

Once and for all I wanna settle down

Moved so much when I was a kid

Always trying to make new friends

If it's roots that you want, come on

The west is where you lived for so long

It's got your bros and your doctors too

The hairstylist that perfected your 'do

No, that ain't nothing that you should mind

Think of the ironwood trees that you climbed

When you were a kid and the seasons would change

It just ain't right when they stay the same

East coast or west coast?

Think of the times that you had in the west

The chicks that randomly showed you their breasts

When you walked in the streets in the city at night

Looking for someone to make you feel (alright)

Think of your mom and think of your dad

Don't you think you oughta pay them back?

And help them find their happiness

And they can help with the kids

East coast or west coast?

How could you raise your kids in the east?

Don't you remember how you would weep?

And the backwards, bigoted, bully creeps

You should find some alternative beats

If alternative beats don't sound produced

Then, by all means, go ahead and move

When I said it wouldn't matter if you'd blown your youth

[?]

East coast or west coast?

Now hold on, guys, let's give it a rest

I like both coasts, the east and the west

I'll have to think on this for a while

And ask myself with smile

East coast or west coast?

(Where can I do my best?)

East coast or west coast?

(Where can I give my best?)

I think you know where you wanna live, bro

Aw, shut... the... shut up
