California Lyrics
Step off the plane and the first thing that I hear
"Welcome to California!"
I'm doing my best just to try not to disappear
And no one is gonna do that for ya
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e126925-fox_stevenson~california_lyrics.html ]
I've got pale white skin and a point I've got to prove (got to prove)
And I hear that's easy if you got the money (got the money)
Now they tell me I'm done but I'm only 22 (22)
Yeah California is kinda funny
Either I can do better
Or I'm just fooling myself
I never say never
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
Either I can do better
Or I'm just fooling myself
I never say never
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
Welcome to California!
I'm setting up shop, doing what I gotta do to live
And I've been inhaling that super freeway (super freeway)
27 months with a hunger that I just can't shift (just can't shift)
That hunger is pretty common these days
We all wanna be rich and famous and powerful
These are snowman's dreams and they're beautiful
We need those fast cars‚ Hollywood stars
We'll split the difference and make it all ours
Welcome to California
Either I can do better
Or I'm just fooling myself
I never say never
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
Either I can do better
Or I'm just fooling myself
I never say never
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
Welcome to California
You know I don't know what I'm doing
She says she came here just to get away from god
She says "I need you to tell me something
How can I stay when I'm always falling off?"
She takes a sip and says she hopes she's dead by morning
And she jumps up on the table says she's over it
And she screams "I'm gonna be Marilyn Monroe"
For a place that got so famous for it's glamour and it's sunshine
I'm still surprised by all the snow
We all wanna be rich and famous and powerful
Do these snowman's dreams make us beautiful?
We need those fast cars‚ Hollywood stars
We'll split the difference and make it all ours
Welcome to California
Either I can do better
Or I'm just fooling myself
I never say never
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
Either I can do better
Or I'm just fooling myself
I never say never
'Cause I'm just fooling myself
Welcome to California
Welcome to California
