[English]

Say goodbye to Oz and everything you own

California dreamin' is a Pettibon

LA's screaming you're my home

Vanity is blasted but it's rarely fair

I could smell the Prozac in your pretty hair

Got a lot of friends, but is anyone there

I don't know but it's been said

Your heart is stronger than your head

And this location is my home

Stick n move you're living in a quick world

Got a heavy laugh for such a tiny girl

Born into it that's for sure

Rivers get connected so much stronger than expected well

Sick love comes to wash us away

Prisons of perspective

How your vision gets corrected and

Sick love is my modern cliche

People talk and tell you what you want to hear

Do you really need another souvenir

Super heroes tend to disappear

Fame is just a trick you see an empty glass

Leave you feeling thirsty and so very fast

Chase your tail my baby it'll be your last

I don't know but it's been said

Your heart is stronger than your head

And this location is my home

Rivers get connected so much stronger than expected well

Sick love comes to wash us away

Prisons of perspective

How your vision gets corrected and

Sick love is my modern cliche

...

Rivers get connected so much stronger than expected well

Sick love comes to wash us away

Prisons of perspective

How your vision gets corrected and

Sick love is my modern cliche

Openly defective is the lover you elected and

A portrait she was bound to portray
