Red Hot Chili Smashup
[Verse 1]
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the backstreets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus]
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mould
[Verse 2]
It's a cool place, and they say it gets colder
If you're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
But the meteor man begs to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how 'bout yours?
That's the way I like it 'cause I'll never get bored
[Chorus]
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mould
[Bridge]
Can't stop, addicted to the shindig
Chop Top, he says I'm gonna win big
Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation
Defunct the pistol that you pay for
This punk, the feeling that you stay for
In time I want to be your best friend
East side lovers living on the west end
[Chorus]
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mould, yeah
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mould
