Beach babes, in bikinis
And the body builders standing guard
Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s
Rev their engines down the boulevard
It’s just a, it’s just a pipe dream, I know I’ll never have it no I’ll never meet a movie star
And where I come from, it’s usually raining and we’re used to drinking in the park
I’ve never been, I’ve never been to Californ-i-a
(Been to Californ-i-a)
And no one in Beverly Hills is gonna know my name
(Never partied in L.A.)
The orange men from thе Orange County
Play their golf in the midday sun
Silicon womеn from Silicon Valley
Wear valour as they shoot their guns
It’s just a, it’s just a pipe dream, I know I’ll never have it no I’ll never meet a movie star
And where I come from it’s usually raining and we’re used to drinking in the park
I’ve never been, I’ve never been to Californ-i-a
(Been to Californ-i-a)
And no one in Beverly Hills is gonna know my name
(Never partied in L.A.)
And I wanna be a little more James Dean, a little less James Bond when I cross the pond
And I wanna see baseball on TV, a shopping mall, I wanna see it all
I wanna see it all
I wanna be
I wanna be in Californ-i-a
(Live in Californ-i-a)
Everyone in Beverley Hills is gonna know my name
(Everybody in L.A.)
It’s just a pipe dream I know I’ll never have it, I’ll never be a movie star
I’ll never be
I’ll never be
I’ll never be
I’ll never be in Californ-i-a
Live in Californ-i-a
