California

Oh no, I'm late for work again, Sky is the color of concrete Wouldn't you know it would have to be raining Oh no, the streets are full of strangers Clutching their soggy umbrellas And none of them offer to share their protection Gotta be this town, dragging me down Wish that I could be In California The trees are always green in California The streets are always clean in California And the people look so happy Cuz they wake up every day In California Oh no, you've got that face again The one that says I failed you And as usual I'm clueless about it Oh no, I do not have the strength To field your foolish questions Sometimes I wonder why we're still together Gotta be this town, dragging me down Wish that I could be In California The trees are always green in California The streets are always clean in California And the people look so happy Cuz they wake up every day In California The sky is always blue in California We could start brand new in California Where everyone is happy Maybe we’d be happy too In California Baby I'm not imagining things With my own eyes I've seen it on the screen And if the camera lies I want it to lie about me
