Miss California
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.
I called on Jesus
But he didn't check his phone today
Oh, there's my summer girl
I've been wanting her
I hear she's got a boyfriend
Thought I could leave her for a season
But it just got cold
Yeah, and it's a lonely hour
In my cell phone tower
Broken down transmission
But I'm gonna take you to
My boxcar on the beach
And I'm gonna hang the sun above your bed
And soak your hair in bleach
(Chorus)
You'll be missed, Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you
You'll turn into a mystery
But you're no mystery to me,
Miss California
I called on Jesus,
But he heard I hurt his little girl
Yeah, with my reckless stare
I've been so unfair
Misplacing my affections
She had a reason not to take me
Back into her care
Oh, I'm just a stray dog now
I can beg or bow
Just gimme me some direction
But I'm gonna take you to the mansion where I hide
And I'm gonna paint a diamond on your hand
You will be my bride
(Chorus)
You'll be missed, Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you
You'll turn into a mystery
But you're no mystery to me,
Miss California.
Miss California
I'll be around
I'll be around
(Chorus)
You'll be missed, Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you
You'll turn into a mystery
But not to me
You'll be missed, Miss California
We'll be married in the rain
When they can't find you
I'm sure I'll be the one they blame
But they can't prove anything,
Miss California
Miss California
I'll be around
