 The Last  - Eagles
 
 She came from 
 the one in  Island
  the old world shadows hang
 heavy in the 
 She packed  hopes and dreams
 like a refugee
 Just as her father came  the sea
 
  heard about a place people were smilin'
  spoke about the red man's way,
 and how they loved  land
 And  came from everywhere
 to the Great 
  a place to stand
 or a  to hide
 
 Down in the crowded 
 out for a  time,
 Can't wait  tell you all,
 what it's  up there
  they called it paradise
  don't know why
 Somebody laid the mountains 
 while  town got high
 
 Then the chilly winds  down
 Across the desert
 through the canyons of  coast, to
 the Malibu
  the pretty people play,
 hungry for power
 to light their neon 
 and give  things to do
 
 Some rich men came  raped the land,
 Nobody caught 'em
  up a bunch of ugly boxes, and Jesus,
 people bought 'em
 And they  it paradise
 The  to be
 They watched  hazy sun, sinking in the sea
 
 You can  it all behind
  sail to Lahaina
 just  the missionaries did, so many years ago
 They even  a neon sign: "Jesus is coming"
 Brought  white man's burden down
 Brought the white  reign
 
  will provide the grand design?
 What is yours and what  mine?
  there is no more new frontier
 We  got to make it here
 
 We  our endless needs and
  our bloody deeds,
 in the name of destiny  the name
 of God
 
  you can see them there,
 On Sunday morning
 They stand up  sing about
 what  like up there
  call it paradise
  don't know why
  call someplace paradise,
 kiss it goodbye
