    Story Behind the Song
    I used to travel a lot for work, and when I was in LA I'd often stay at the Bel Age on Sunset. The Bel Age used to be the ultimate Hollywood Rock and Roll hotel, but lately it's been aging like Ozzy.

    I used to sit on the balcony and come up with stories of burned out travelers staring at the lights, hoping to get a glimpse of the ocean, only to see hamburger stands and so many cars.

    "Plastic Girl" appeared in an earlier form on the record "Do You Want to See What I Dream About," recorded at home a few years ago.

    Lyrics
    miss cecile sits and has a smoke
    on her hotel balcony
    and from her two room suite at the bel age
    she can see into the valley
    she sees straight through these lights
    past burger joints and rental cars
    she sees straight through these lights
    to the ocean
    when will you be my plastic girl?
    miss cecile turns and shuts the door
    to her hotel balcony
    and with the lights turned down she has some more
    and drifts out into the galaxie
    she sees straight through these lights
    past burger joints and rental cars
    she sees straight through these lights
    down to the ocean
    doo wah
