California Songtext
I'm all chalked out on the ground by the curtain call.

All of the sharp observations are a paper trail forty stories tall,

Where any conclusions might slip through my fingers.

As I'm listening to the story she's telling now...


It's a beautiful life,

It's a beautiful lie.



When it's late she's still talking about California.

Where the distance from the myth has never been greater.

From the sea to the boulevard stretching her arms to the desert.



It's a beautiful life,

Such a beautiful lie...

It's a beautiful life,
But she's leading me one step behind

With a promise one day we'll arrive



And if she ever runs out of California,

She's always got, she's always got last summer

In a state of mind with occasional tremors



It's a beautiful life

Under restless and fluroescent skies

She's all coloured all into the lines, lines, lines, lines, lines...



It's a beautiful life

And she's leading me one step behind

With a promise one day we'll arrive, one day we'll arrive, one day we'll arrive...



When I get there I...

When I get there I...

I'm always one step behind...
