Lyrics
This old town is filled with sin It'll swallow you in If you've got some money to burn Take it home right away You've got three years to pay But Satan is waiting his turn This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house It seems like this whole town's insane On the thirty-first floor, a gold plated door Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain The scientists say It will all wash away But we don't believe it any more 'Cause we've got our recruits And our green mohair suits So please show your I.D. at the door This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house It seems like this whole town's insane On the thirty-first floor, a gold plated door Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain A friend came around Tried to clean up this town His ideas made some people mad Yet he trusted his crowd So he spoke right out loud But they lost the best friend they had This old earthquake's gonna leave me in the poor house It seems like this whole town's insane On the thirty-first floor, a gold plated door Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain On the thirty-first floor, a gold plated door Won't keep out the Lord's burning rain

Beck will perform two shows at London's Royal Albert Hall in April, featuring symphonic arrangements with the BBC Concert Orchestra.

The track previews Peck's upcoming duets album, 'Stampede Vol. 2'.

The now-duo also have a few UK shows coming up.

The song was previously played at his intimate performance at Lafayette in London last September.

'We Love L.A.' features an impressive lineup of guests including Judd Apatow, Pink, Inara George, Beck, Grohl’s daughter Violet, Karen O, and Tenacious D.

Grohl shared via Foo Fighters' social media accounts that "it's a little known fact that our favorite Guero actually has Jewish roots".

The original featured on last year's 'The Story of Hugo' EP.
