"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
Not In California
