California English

Wouldn't ever gag you with a spoon, my only true love
Never really heard you speak that way, it's unworthy of
Funny how that little college girl called language corrupt
Funny how the other private schools had no Hapa ClubSomeone took a trip before you came to ski in the Alps
Your father moved across the country just to sunburn his scalp
Contra Costa, Contra Mundum, contradict what I say
Living at the French Connection, but we'll die in LABlasted from a disconnected light switch
Through the condo that they'll never finish
Bounced across a Saudi satellite dish
And through your brain to California EnglishNo one sits inside a freezing flat and stays there 'til May
Leafing through a stack of A-Zs to surf the UK
Waiting with the wind against your face and gel in your hair
Shivering in little undershirts, you don't seem to careBlasted from a disconnected light switch
Through the condo that they'll never finish
Bounced across a Saudi satellite dish
And through your brain to California EnglishSweet carob rice cake, she don't care how the sweets taste
Fake Philly cheese steak, but you use real toothpaste
'Cause if that Tom's don't work, if it just makes you worse
Would you lose all of your faith in the Good Earth?And if it's all a curse and we're just getting worse
Baby, please don't lose your faith in the Good earthBlasted from a disconnected light switch
Through the condo that they'll never finish
Bounced across a Saudi satellite dish
And through your brain to California EnglishBlasted from a disconnected light switch
Through the condo that they'll never finish
Bounced across a Saudi satellite dish
And through your brain to California English
