[Verse 1]
Any mention of the coast
I think of you the most
Before shell or sea or sand
Before salty air or suntan
It was a year ago today
You were showing me the way
So I would not miss a thing
Where to eat or drink or play

[Chorus]
But because I would not be true
Gotta find other things to do
California belongs to you
It belongs to you

[Verse 2]
Guess I did ask for a sign
But I did not expect to find it
In the shape of a long tall man
With that mirror in his hand
What I saw I could not unsee
That the evil one is me
One bite or two or three
And then I run away again
[Chorus 2]
And because I could not be true
Gotta find other things to do
California belongs to you
It bеlongs to you
No, I never could be truе
Gotta find other things to do
California belongs to you
It belongs to you
