Prisoner of Invention Video (MV)

If I stay here long enough, maybe then I'll write a song
And if I play it well enough, maybe then I'll get a call
Saying, "come out to LA, we really dig the sound
And there's a place where you can stay above the Teregram Ballroom"

So I'm packing all my stuff, and my friends all think it's stupid
But I'm taping up the boxes, tying up the loose ends
Going to LA with a dollar in my pocket
Maybe I'll get paid, maybe I'll just drop it all down

Prisoner of Invention
Passenger to a bright dimension
Don't stop now, pay attention
Prisoner of Invention

I've been driving for two days, but I'm still in f*cking Texas
And the sun is in my face like an atomic weapon went off
In a flash, somewhere in Arizona, but the canyon's filled with trash
And dreams of California

Finally in LA but the signs all say it's closed now
You got here kind of late, the star of a ghost town
And I found the walk of fame, it crumbled as I got there
And turned into a grave for dreams we all used to share

Prisoner of Invention
Passenger to a bright dimension
Don't stop now, pay attention
