California - Prius Edition

Left behind my home

Three thousand miles down the road

In my Honda with my only mouth to feed

I don't care what town

As long as she's not hangin' 'round

Just get me far as hell from Nashville, Tennessee

'Cause I'd rather be depressed in California

Ocean's got the only blues I need

Lay me down to rest in California

Heart as cold as New Year's NYC

Friends all think I'm dead

A silver bullet to my head

They've been searchin' in the flowers and the weeds

They don't know the truth

I'm bringin' back the joy of youth

Drinkin' High Life from the bottle on the beach

'Cause I'd rather be depressed in California

Ocean's got the only blues I need

Lay me down to rest in California

Heart as cold as New Year's NYC

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

'Cause I'd rather be depressed in California

Finally, I can find myself some peace

Lay me down to rest in California

Maybe I'll just end up on TV

One hundred-thousand cigarettes in California

Still cleaner than the air I used to breathe

Yeah, I'd rather be depressed in California

'Cause nothing else is good enough for me
