  • Well I got your late night call
    You're in the center of it all
    You're having a ball
    And you're really doing fine
    A west coast time
    And I believe you

    But here's one for the coast
    And the people with the most
    The pretty pretty folks
    The west coast folks

    And here we go again Its never gonna end
    We're all so sick of California Songs
    Yeah, We know you love L.A.
    There's nothing left to say
    Please no more California Songs
    And Fuck New York too

    Yeah your heaven is a lie
    Just more shit that I don't buy
    And they're heading for the coast
    They're moving out in droves
    Sending back reports on the radio
    With the messages the same
    It's gettin' pretty lame
    California dreaming's on the radio

    And here we go again It's never gonna end
    We're all so sick of California Songs
    Yeah, We know you love L.A.
    But there's nothing left to say
    Please no more California Songs
    And Fuck New York too Writer/s: BRIAN ST. CLAIR, DAVID SCOTT LUCAS
