Lyrics
California Kids
Verse 1
Tell them RoboCallers I sleep in til ten
Then I log onto Facebook to hang with my friends
Got no time to take no Survey
Havin' all the fun I can Hey!
V2- When things get too hot I head for the beach
In a brand new Zipcar from right down the street
Text my girl, say let's meet up at noon
Have all the fun we can, oohh
Chorus-
We're California Kids
Show us the party, we'll make it hip
'Cuz We're California Kids
V3- Hungry? Check out the truck down the street
All the world's best, California Cuisine
Get it while its hot, they may not be here long
Have all the fun we can ahhh!
V4- Cruise up the street see what's goin' down
At the hot new Club where the kids hang around
Got the best beats spinning, Tweet it out loud
Have all the fun we can oww!
Chorus
V5- Don't matter just where you are
Or if you're drivin' a hot new car
California Dreamin' makes you a star
Have all the fun we can Ahh!
Inst V-
Chorus
Bridge-
Tell you what we did
Had a good time
I know you don't mind
End- Come on you California Kids
Yeah California Kids, Say California Kids---
repeat and ad lib to bridge out
