Wired All Wrong has been described as functioning similar to God Lives Underwater, Turzo's former band, in the sense that the two founding members, Turzo and Mahaffey, write, record and produce all the music then perform it live alongside a full band. Their on-stage presence is that of an over-the-top, garage-band-esque, heavy metal sound accented by Mahaffey's light-hearted stage antics.
Lost Angeles
Wired All Wrong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was a town we did not know
But it called out, begging us to go
It was the strangest thing but what did we know? ha
Now I realize I was so wrong
Just like the multitude of fools I now live among
They all wanna be starting something
I'm the owner of a smoking gun
What Los Angeles needs is a revolution
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
Now what will we learn from what we've done
We walk a lonely line between castles and ruin
Will we stay or pack it up and go home
Or just serve you coffee til we're globally known? ha
The end is near and we'll watch it sink
As the rapper rolls round in his Cadillac tank
Tell me who's idea was this for fun
A mindless pawn yeah, I've become one
Fight the crowd for number one
I"m talking loud but ain't saying nothing
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Serious money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make
Money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make
Money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make
Money, money, money, money
Some serious money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make
Money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make
Money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make
Money, money, money, money
Some serious money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Yeah you better make, make, make my day
Los Angeles needs a revolution
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
The lyrics of Wired All Wrong's song "Lost Angeles" depict a disillusioned view of the city with the "lost" spelling acting as a double entendre. The singer opens with a recollection of when they first arrived in the city, drawn by an inexplicable pull towards it. The chorus then states that the city needs a revolution, hinting at the social inequalities and injustices that exist in LA. The second verse begins by questioning what they've learnt from their time in the city, acknowledging that they've been walking a thin line between success and failure. The rapper in his Cadillac tank serves as a symbol of the materialism that drives a divisive culture. The final repetition of the chorus is merged with the sound of money being made, a commentary on the financial gain being prioritized over social issues.

Way not so long ago
Recently, but not too far back in time
There was a town we did not know
We encountered an unfamiliar town
But it called out, begging us to go
The town seemed to invite us to explore it
It was the strangest thing but what did we know? ha
We were unsure of what to make of this feeling
Now I realize I was so wrong
Upon reflection, I admit to being mistaken
Just like the multitude of fools I now live among
I am surrounded by others who are similarly misguided
They all wanna be starting something
People desire to begin something new
They're talking loud but ain't saying nothing
However, their words have no substance
I'm the owner of a smoking gun
I am responsible for a serious mistake
What Los Angeles needs is a revolution
The city requires significant change
Lost An-geles needs a revolution
The city of Los Angeles requires a major political or social shift
Now what will we learn from what we've done
What lessons will we take away from our past experiences
We walk a lonely line between castles and ruin
Our journey is a precarious one, between success and failure
Will we stay or pack it up and go home
Do we stay and fight or give up and leave
Or just serve you coffee til we're globally known? ha
Do we settle for a mundane existence or strive for greater recognition
The end is near and we'll watch it sink
The end is in sight and we will witness its downfall
As the rapper rolls round in his Cadillac tank
An extravagant display of wealth and power
Tell me who's idea was this for fun
Whose idea was it to make a mockery of this situation
A mindless pawn yeah, I've become one
I have fallen into a trap of mindless conformity
Fight the crowd for number one
Strive to be the best, even if it means competing with others
I'm talking loud but ain't saying nothing
My words are empty and without substance
Money, money, money, money
A fixation on wealth and riches
Some serious money, money, money, money
An intense desire for significant wealth
Yeah you better make
You should focus on
Make my day
Make me happy or fulfill my desires
