tired of california

(I'm so tired of California, I'm so tired of L.A.)
(Where the real thing comes as often as the California rain)

I get sick of sunshine on my perfect skin
Vapid conversation, givin' me the spins
Drivin' down Mulholland, closin' both my eyes
'Cause they say you get more famous when you die

And everyone seems fine
Am I losing my mind?

I'm so tired of California, I'm so tired of L.A.
Where the real thing comes as often as the California rain
I got all these legal toxins in my blood, and in my brain
I keep sayin' that I'm leavin', but it doesn't work that way

I can't feel my heartbeat, way up in the hills
Burnin' down my mansion, didn't write a will
Front row at my funeral, crocodile tears
Came here for the weekend, but I haven't left in years (is that weird?)

I'm so tired of California, I'm so tired of L.A.
Where the real thing comes as often as the California rain
I got all these legal toxins in my blood, and in my brain
I keep sayin' that I'm leavin', but it doesn't work that way

(Can I be young forever?)
(Will it be fun forever?)
(Can I be young forever?)
(Will it be fun) forever?

(We're so tired of California, we're so tired of L.A.)
(Where the real thing comes as often as the California rain)
(We got all these legal toxins in our blood, and in our brain)
(We keep sayin' that we're leavin', but it doesn't work that way)

I'm so tired of California, I'm so tired of L.A.
Where the real thing comes as often as the California rain
I got all these legal toxins in my blood, and in my brain
I keep sayin' that I'm leavin', but it doesn't work that way
