Chasing California

Don't go chasing California
Hoping that there's something waiting for you
Don't go chasing California
There's no room for people like us

I used to cut the phone line
So I don't get no calls
All alone in my mind
Intruding all of my thoughts

Maybe there's a pill that could fix me
So I could feel out of it
Maybe there's a dealer to help me
Maybe it's our government

Oh, I love the chase
I love the chase, but my heart it says
Don't go chasing California
Don't go chasing California

Don't go chasing California
Hoping that there's something waiting for you
Don't go chasing California
There's no room for people like us

I never wanted trouble
I used to bit my tongue
Dealing with the devil
Ever since I was young

Maybe there's a drug that could save me
Maybe I'm just out of it
Maybe there's a line that could change me
Or maybe I'm a hypocrite

Oh, I love the chase
I love the chase, but my heart it says
Don't go chasing California
Don't go chasing California

Don't go chasing California
Hoping that there's something waiting for you
Don't go chasing California
There's no room for people like us
