California Lyrics - Poses - Rufus Wainwright

California, California 

You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed 

Big time rollers, part time models 

So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead 

I don't know this sea of neon, thousand surfers, whiffs of freon 

And big nights back east with Rhoda 

California, please 

There's a moment I've been saving 

A kind of crucifix around this munchkin land 

Up north freezing, little me drooling 

That's Entertainment's on at eight 

Come on Ginger, slam

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I don't know this sea of neon, thousand surfers, whiffs of freon 

And my new grandma Bea Arthur 

Come on over 

Ain't it a shame that at the top 

Peanut butter and jam they served you 

Ain't it a shame that at the top 

Still those soft skin boys can bruise you 

Yes, I fell for a streaker 

I don't know this sea of neon, thousand surfers, whiffs of freon 

Ain't it a shame that all the world 

Can't enjoy your mad traditions 

Ain't it a shame that all the world 

Don't got keys to their own ignitions 

Life is the longest death in California

California, you're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed 

So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead 

You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed 

So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead
