I can hear them speaking in the next room
As they drink and start losing control and get louder
They lose control and get louder
They wonder about me
I can hear her swirling the ice with her finger
ย
She's got that half-dead look in her eyes by now
She worries about me
ย
He's not like the, the other boys around here
He says nothing and sits in his room and he's afraid to
ย
And he's afraid to drive a car, so sad he is
ย
And he's afraid to drive a car, so sad he is
It's our duty as we're respected
It's our duty as Californians
To show him new life
To show him new life
ย
Ever since my staying, I've, I've been having bad dreams
So, stop eating cabbage and stop talking to that girl
What are the winters like here?
Hush up and play the piano
But, have I told you how I love her?
Yes, but you're an Aquarius, and she is Capricorn
ย
Come, come now, and meet your cousins from L.A
Shut up and leave me alone
ย
We know who you are, I read your palm while you were sleeping
And I read through your diary
And the secrets you've been keeping, we were already aware of
And, now, for dinner, and maybe tomorrow we'll have a drink and talk this over
ย
And, in the meantime, please, think of the good things that we've done for you
It's our duty as we're respected
It's our duty as Californians
To show him new life
To show him new life
ย
It's our duty as we're respected
It's our duty as Californians
To show him new life
To show him new life
