Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Intro (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
   There are days I wanna leave LA
   I wanna break out of the maze
   Escape the dark haze these days
   So many kids I know your feelin' crazed
   Crave material things and makin' slave wages
---> Play Riff 2 over:
   Baggy pockets only got laundry fluff
   Livin' where rich people always buying some stuff
   So you try to act tough and hide what's inside
   Hold your head high getting ***ed up and throwing dice
---> Play Riff 2 (palm muted) over:
   As bad as yours and bad enough I'm sure
   My heart wants to love but must navigate through war
   Cuz seein' that we're wired to short circuit
   Must mean the meek who will inherit the the earth already work it
---> Play Chorus over:
   There's a land by the sand grab the money
   Plastic the life end of the century
   People actin' fake can't see the omens
   Wake up yourself cause a change is comin'
   There's a land by the sand grab the money
   Hollywood is such a place fuelin' the frenzy
   And everyone starts to peep around corners
   Before they take their next step they know they borders
---> Play Intro (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
   In this $19.98 plus shipping and handling type netherworld
   Everytime merchandise dips in our coffers
   We buy that image that cost of livin' uh huh
   The fakest *** and act cool our friends our watching
---> Play Riff 2 over:
   Attention shoppers check the selection in your reflection
   Don't you feel good does it enhance your fresh complexion
   You gotta have it if you got to have it
   You gotta have it if you got to have it
---> Play Riff 2 (palm muted) over:
   As the world turns and all the money we burn
   On the bull*** to make us happy sometimes we never learn
   We're self centered we think we're better
   We look down as a people upon our elders
---> Play Chorus over:
   There's a land by the sand grab the money
   Plastic the life end of the century
   People actin' fake can't see the omens
   Wake up yourself cause a change is comin'
   There's a land by the sand grab the money
   Now let go of it cause it's dissolving
   It created all your fears and kept you hustling
   Made you sever all the ties to your family
   There's a land by the sand grab the money
   Hollywood is such a place fuelin' the frenzy
   And everyone starts to peep around corners
   Before they take their next step they know they borders
---> Play Ending (x3)
---> End on a F5 (333xxx) and a F#5 (444xxx)
