California sun
I wish I was relaxing there with you
California sun
We're just swimmin' in women and shootin' off our guns
And I wish I could be someone else
I wish I could be anyone else but me sometimes
I do
And I wish I could be like you
I wish I could be drugged up passed out by the pool
Just like you
Ahh
I bet a twenty dollar bill
I bet a twenty dollar bill you don't come home
No, I bet a hundred dollar bill
I bet a hundred dollar bill you don't come home
'Cause you won't
And I could use a fancy car
I could use a big old house up on the hills
And sugar let me tell you I could definitely sell you on this
If you will listen to me still
And you will
Ahh, ahh
But I won't waste my energy
'Cause these words won't buy me anything
And even if I close my eyes
The california sun will rise
Ahh (it feels good with the sun in your life)
Ahh (it feels good to be good to your vice)
Ahh (it feels good with the sun in your life)
Ahh (it feels good to be good to your vice)
It feels good with the sun in your life
The good vibes and the golden silence
It feels good to be good to your vice
Burn it into the back of your eyelids
It feels good with the sun in your life
The good vibes and the golden silence
It feels good to be good to your vice
Burn it into the back of your eyelids
