Surf's Up! (California)

(album: Yikes - 2015)

You moved out to the West Coast
But it's all about who you know
And so you started doing coke
You wanted to change the world with your music
When you got to Los Angeles you mostly just sat around and did coke

And you said you'd be happier if you weren't here
Maybe somewhere's better
Cause you're not there
Maybe somewhere's better
Cause you're not there

[?]

I'm never moving to California
I'm never moving out West
You wanted to follow your dreams
That's just a business to exploit you and me
You got an unpaid internship at the dream factory
Cause that's where you wanted to be

And if you ask me to run away, you know that I would
I would quit my shitty job, I would leave my shitty band
And head out West to find a little bit of excitement
Then you break up with me when you see how boring I am
And then I'd have to get a temp job to afford rent and beer
And if that's the case then shit
I might as well stay around here

I'm never moving to California
I'm never moving out West
I'm glad you followed your dreams and I hope you're doing well
But I can't afford to visit so I'll see you in Hell
I'll see you in Hell
I'll see you in Hell
I'll see you on Snapchat
