lyrics

My drink was spiked with acid
Or something equally fantastic
And now I'm seeing California all the time

She was beautiful but she'd been ravaged by the '80s
I can't be sure if it was cocaine or just the passing of these seasons

All the California girls sing, they all dance in the sun
And as the boardwalk lit up, they were queens of the world

I can see them now, lonely children on the shore
This dusty coast and all the dreams it might hold
We must remember that love can be true
If only for an afternoon it can be
The drugs and the beach, the ocean and the moon

And the fortuneteller said something queer
Said spend this life as quick as you can or it might disappear
And we were beautiful blond children trying it all for the first time
We go straight up the coast
The golden years...
