[Lyric] Peter Arrives And Settles In Los Angeles (Peter And The Wolf In Hollywood)

Late one night Peter arrived at Los Angeles
From far away Russia
It was his first time away from home
He was coming to live with his grandfather
Who had moved to America long ago
From the airplane window the city looks so big
And scary
As he waited outside, Peter wondered
"Will I recognize him"?
When Peter's grandfather arrived he was
Driving an old pickup truck
And wearing a headband
With his long hair like, a hippie
Not exactly the kind of grandfather Peter was expеcting
"Ha hey there littlе man," said grandfather
"Hop in dude, I think you gonna like it here"
And off they went
Peter didn't enjoy the music playing on the radio
So he gingerly reached for the dial
(Radio sounds)
(Schools Out plays on the radio)
(Radio sounds)
"Oh, I like this one!," said Peter
"Ok, that's cool," said grandfather
A little surprised
Peter's grandfather work as a gardener for a once famous movie star
Like many celebrities who came to Hollywood to make there dreams
Come true, the movie star lived in a fabulous mansion
Surrounded by fancy grounds with a swimming pool
And bubbling fountains
They had arrived
But grandfather lived in a bungalow
In the back of the mansion which he shared with a pack of ducks
One of whom, spent more time inside the house than outside
He thought of himself as almost human
"What a big house!" thought Peter
Who grown up in a small cramped apartment
It was nice to have a upstairs
And that's just were Peter's room was
It didn't seem like much at first, but little by little
Peter made that room his own
He found a place for the picture of his parents
And hang up new posters
Sometimes, grandfather helped him build things
And that was cool
And as the weeks went by, Peter studied hard
At night, grandfather read him stories
And all the while, the little duck that thought he was human became
Peter's best friend
