Kudos to the City of Malibu and to LA County for completing the resurfacing of Latigo Canyon Road. As Peter, Paul and Mary once sang, “Where Have All the Potholes Gone?”
“Where Have All the Potholes Gone?”
(melody: “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?”)
Lyrics by David Pepper
Where have all the potholes gone?
Longtime hazardous,
Where have all the potholes gone?
So deep and wide,
Where have all the potholes gone?
Filled with blacktop everyone,
Road’s smooth now that they’re gone,
Latigo’s forever fun.
Where have all the road bumps gone?
Longtime bouncing,
Where have all the road bumps gone?
So high and wide,
Where have all the road bumps gone?
Steamrollered flat everyone,
Road’s smooth now that they’re gone?
Latigo’s forever fun.
Where have all the speed traps gone?
Longtime missing,
Where have all the speed traps gone?
Speedsters slow down,
Where have all the speed traps gone?
Cars, bikes, 10-speeds everyone,
Let’s stroll free in the sun,
Let’s stroll free in the sun.
Where have all the potholes gone?
Longtime hazardous,
Where have all the potholes gone?
So deep and wide,
Kudos go to Malibu,
And our good man Zev Y., too,
Latigo’s forever new,
Enjoy, enjoy the view.
