California's Burning
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
California's burning, burning, burning to the ground...
and my heade is turning, turning, turning round and round...
alie's stomach's churning, churning, like a storm today...
and your mother's crying, crying, closing up the safe...
and I'm here, wondering where the sun has gone...
driving through a Midwest storm,
asking why there's no one home...
Encinitas likes to miss me, like nobody's child..
and my eyes like rainy Tuesdays, like to watch you smile...
and I'm here, wondering where the sun has gone...
driving through a Midwest storm,
asking why there's no one home...
