They called up the fire department and screamed
"Our house is burning down!"
"Can't do a thing for ya'" was the only reply
Warren Zevon could not have imagined the horror of all this
When he was writing about the apocalypse
L.A. was eventually going to have to face
It's happening now and all that can be done
Is the filming of the event
By a thousand videographers
Drones in the sky capturing dramatic
Footage of the flames
Lapping at the edges of infinity pools
That will be used for the exciting docudrama
To be seen exclusively on Netflix in the coming months
Replete with multiple interviews with some very famous people
Who lost nearly everything in the conflagration
Caused by excessively dry conditions
(In an irrigated desert prone to periodic drought)
And swirling dry Santa Ana winds
Brave men and women doing everything they can
To try to control the uncontrollable
The cameras are rolling as residents are forced to leave
Their homes and memories behind
Pictures of the destruction of beachfront mansions
Posted on Instagram, X, YouTube and of course TMZ
Eventually, maps of the inferno's meandering path of devastation
Will be available for the interested at the corner of Sunset & Church
Not too far from the Hotel Angeleno (four stars)
If it's still there, that is
