California, You're Killing Me
The mail is stacked up against the wall
The new envelopes are sealed
The papers lie lifeless and damp
And I can't escape
Cause California, you're killing me
You're killing me
The spray around the room
The scent of salt and rubber
I can feel it in my breath
But more so in my heart
You called it stranded
Many, many passing by
The sorrow hangs like the wetsuit in the windowsill
And it's time to come clean
Cause California, you're killing me
You're killing me
The rodents they arrive and the spend time by the fire
The rats they dance, the rats, they drink
There's already been enough said about them there
The ones you love are leaving
And California, you're killing me
You're killing me
It was late when the doorbell rang
It was early too, I'd guess
She thought the officers had news of her son
But to her luck, she wasn't right
They came for vacation, to sit in the sand
To watch the one they love graduate
As they opened the mail, miles away he drank
Cause California's, killin him and
I learned the best things I've ever known from you
I learned the worst things I've ever known from you
I learned the best things I've ever known from you
I learned the worst things I've ever known from you
You're gorgeous, you rock, you roll and you're mine
But California you're, California, you're killing me
You're killing me
You're killing me
You're killing me
You're killing me
The new envelopes are sealed
The papers lie lifeless and damp
And I can't escape
Cause California, you're killing me
You're killing me
The spray around the room
The scent of salt and rubber
I can feel it in my breath
But more so in my heart
You called it stranded
Many, many passing by
The sorrow hangs like the wetsuit in the windowsill
And it's time to come clean
Cause California, you're killing me
You're killing me
The rodents they arrive and the spend time by the fire
The rats they dance, the rats, they drink
There's already been enough said about them there
The ones you love are leaving
And California, you're killing me
You're killing me
It was late when the doorbell rang
It was early too, I'd guess
She thought the officers had news of her son
But to her luck, she wasn't right
They came for vacation, to sit in the sand
To watch the one they love graduate
As they opened the mail, miles away he drank
Cause California's, killin him and
I learned the best things I've ever known from you
I learned the worst things I've ever known from you
I learned the best things I've ever known from you
I learned the worst things I've ever known from you
You're gorgeous, you rock, you roll and you're mine
But California you're, California, you're killing me
You're killing me
You're killing me
You're killing me
You're killing me
