We Don't Need Another Song About California

[Intro]

Give up or give it a shot

Dedication, to the places that you never need to hide

Occupations, the opportunity to see yourself in a light

[Verse 1]

And all the city fires

And the tabloid lies

And the television guys

For the missions and the boulevards

And the way it is when money's all you got

[Pre-Chorus]

Stop and stare

At the accidents and stars that bore you

We don’t dare to sing another song for California

[Chorus]

Well, anywhere

Where the city lights are hopeless for you

We don’t care or need another song for California

[Verse 2]

Shut up and give me a shot

On vacation, to the places that you never want to die

On the station, everybody hears but no one needs to try

On the telephone, on the methane dare

Every minute that you scream

[Bridge]

Before the errant scars and the dying stars

Every second that you take to fake your life

[Pre-Chorus]

Stop and stare

At the accidents and stars that bore you

We don’t dare to sing another song for California

[Chorus]

Well, anywhere

Where the city lights are hopeless for you

We don’t care or need another song for California

[Pre-Chorus]

Stop and stare

At the accidents and stars that bore you

We don’t dare to sing another song for California

[Chorus]

Well, anywhere

Where the city lights are hopeless for you

We don’t care or need another song for California
