lyrics

I'm going down to California
I'm going down to Californ-i-a
In the heat of euphoria
I'm going down to Berkeley and L.A.

I thought it best to inform ya
So I pinned a note on the front gate
With the winter's coldest warning I
Thought I should take my own spring break

So I've gone to California
Down to Venice Beach and Frisco Bay
Nothingness has turned to nausea
So I've gone to Californ-i-a

All there for the taking
Like an endless row of free mini-bars
Living to the fullest
How those pretty faces glow in the dark

Glad to be the boy who got away
Don't think that I'll be going back, hurray

And in sunny California
High on the beach partying till late
And in the San Diego morning I
Will lie on the sand and count the waves

I feel so complete
I can hardly feel the beat of my heart
All I hear is a beat
That keeps on telling me party hard

At last I feel okay
I'm going all the way
Won't hear what I say now

Better seize the day

Since I've found California
I've lost my mind but feel so great
At the height of my euphoria
Waving goodbye from the Golden Gate

Now it's too late for you and I
And all the things we could never say
Well, I had to go Godot you swine
I waited so long but you never came

Now heaven feels so close
I think that I might touch the stars
A romantic overdose, what do you know
It just took me that far

Yes I'll take the blame
Glad to be entertained
At least nothing's the same now

Better seize the day
