Re: going to live in la

This song should be placed between Me Or Him and Sunset Strip. Me Or Him is about Benny going to jail and Sunset Strip is about Billy living in the USA, where he gets the chance to "hack into anywhere he chooses". Going To Live In LA is just between them. It is about Molly being unhappy about Benny, caring about Billy, sending him to the USA probably to escape the black environment in Wales (Benny used to work in a mine - Who Needs Information?), and warning him before getting in trouble in the LA.

BTW, is the last line something like "up in the Mulholland Drive where Warren Beaty locks himself just to stay alive"?

He does not have to get to Wales. There is no hint about Billy going back to Wales, following the running Order of Kaos.

Right on buddy,Molly's their only,and the white gloved boy is in the silo while billy and his uncle r in USA!!!While the Powers that be peed in their undergarments in 4 mints.
But what a shame that these folks dont read the lyrics or try to understand'em, what Roger Waters wrote in the story is clear in the Order/segues of the Songs!This (@Billy in Wales?)question makes me lol!
Hey Bubla tell em to get their silicon hearts pumping,and dont let them sit with their backs to hill (with that red dragon on the green and the male voice choirs) instead of the beach!!! Guess they need a morse code guide also...Can I type in morse a message to all those who dont understand Roger Waters virtue and aim of his music?
