California Sunshine
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.
Life is short and I suspect
That this is a good as it gets
Last night I spent my last
two dollars on a pack of Menthol
cigarettes
Back home there's a rainbow
and there's a pot of gold just out of reach
Out there there's a goldmine
in empty cola cans lying on the beach
California Sunshine
gotta tell the world about it
California Sunshine
What a wasted life without it
All my troubles gone
Lying in the California Sun
Maybe I could sell some stuff
Maybe get enough to buy a rock
Maybe I could hook up with
some tripped out runaway girl
who like to talk
California Sunshine
I just can't say enough about it
California Sunshine
Can't imagine life without it
Everyting's more fun
Lying in the California Sun
Suddenly a cloud to small to rain
covers the sun like a curse
reminding me strangely of Brian Wilson's brain
as I reverently watch it disperse
California Sunshine
I wanna write my friends about it
California Sunshine
All their wasted lives without it
And I'm the lucky one
Lying in the California Sun
I'm the lucky one
Lying in the California Sun
