[Verse 1]
Waitress out dressed like nurses in bondage
Brought me the check, said "I want you to sign this"
Union boy standing next to the rastas
There's gonna be a strike and you ain't gonna stop us
Three men standing and they love what they do
You won't see it coming, cause they want to surprise you
Consider it done, they're gonna stand right by you
American punks don't care about you
Hollywood, what you going to do?
Hollywood, what you going to do?

[Hook]
Don't say that you don't understand
Don't say that you can't comprehend
Don't say that you don't understand
This is California Babylon, my man

Don't say that you don't understand
Don't say that you can't comprehend
Don't say that you don't understand
This is California Babylon, my man

Don't say that you don't understand
Don't say that you can't comprehend
Don't say that you don't understand
This is California Babylon, my man
