California Girl

Mountains of water

Oceans of rock

Sunshine like paper

And paper that’s hot

People like statues

Statues alive

Family like water

Unless blood turns to wine

I’ll watch my skin get golden

I’ll watch my hair turn light

I’ll shed some pounds

Start being loud

Your California girl

Strangers in passing

But not like at home

Bodies are foreign

Skin meets the bone

Levels of power

Everyone rides

Said you were on top

But that was a lie

I’ll watch my skin get golden

I’ll watch my hair turn light

I’ll shed some pounds

Start being loud

Your California girl

I’ll shrink my thoughts to nothing

I’ll spit on what I love

I’ll burn a bridge

Then laugh at it

Your California girl

Center of your world

Your California girl
