LYRICS:
sit back, sip that, you are now in california
sniff that, relapse, where else can you lounge in morning/mourning
we back, rehab, you know that you really wanna
get back, but we laugh, cuz we seen it all before
its the, warm glow of the coke machine
the, foundation of your broken dreams
but you, so used to smoking them seeds
that you wanna move here just cuz of the weed
and d-o-double g said it was so
215, medical, you aint lettin it go
you ready to blow, ready to grow,
ready pack it up sell it smoke it do it some more
but now you havin trouble eatin, trouble sleepin
havin trouble with havin trouble with your inner demons
out all night hittin the clubs, hittin the drugs, they hit back
pictures with sluts. young cuz you 26, hung cuz she want this dick
sprung cuz she gotta kid, you dumb and its obvious
out of towners we could really spot em
cuz they dressin too warm even if its autumn
so you get taken, hustled and taxed kid
they got nothin but beef and green and like atkins
in LA, oh you heard they was fake
but they smile all day so their face really take that shape
sit back, sip that, you are now in california
sniff that, relapse, where else can you lounge in morning/mourning
we back, rehab, you know that you really wanna
get back, but we laugh, cuz we seen it all before
oh so you see now? these people dont even wanna wear their jeans out
they fucked like a rebound where you wanna be now? arcata is the weed town
the raiders more than a team now
symbology and biology, marine style south of the bay is too collegey (fuck that)
the odyssey complete, joshua tree, for a night of drugs and defeat
ten oclock, eleven oclock, twelve oclock rock.
one clock two oclock three oclock stop
drop into hotel, for rum oh hell
its empty, end of joke, ba-dum! oh well
at motel 6 watchin lame shows
cuz ain't shit to do in san diego,
california, consumer catered culture
such a whore, but man i still love her...
