Not In California

"We have not allowed ourselves to comprehend

What failure might mean for us.

Is it a comfort or a curse,

The knowledge that we could have avoided all this?"

The birds all died and the trees caught fire

And the government, it called us crazy

We built a big world then we watched it all burn

'Cause the television made us lazy

It didn't seem true when the powerlines blew

Yeah the h****n, it made us hazy

I looked up at the clouds as I was freaking out

God save me

We're not in California anymore

We're not in California anymore

Traded all our sunshine in for a storm

Don't say I didn't warn ya

We're not in California anymore

The babies all cry as the scientists try

But the politicians keep on screaming

I'd like a roadmap, like to turn the clock back

But the internet, it keeps on freezing

Drink up every bottle, and I smoke some m*******a

I was hoping I could find some peace

I looked up at the clouds, the light was peaking out

I can't believe it

We're not in California anymore

We're not in California anymore

Traded all our sunshine in for a storm

Don't say I didn't warn ya

We're not in California anymore

Visions of the distant and some searching for the synonyms

But all that I can say is that I think I lost my innocence

And I bet if I asked everybody that I know

They'd wanna be a kid again

Visions of the distant and some searching for the synonyms

But all that I can say is that I think I lost my innocence

And I bet if I asked everybody that I know

They'd wanna be a kid again

So they could do it different

We're not in California anymore

We're not in California anymore

Traded all our sunshine in for a storm

Don't say I didn't warn ya

We're not in California anymore

Not in California anymore

Not in California anymore

Don't say I didn't warn ya

We're not in California anymore
