1st Verse:

I wanna lay down on a soft sandy beach

Hot sun beating down on my head

Sun-kissed girls with candy floss curls

Feel so easy feel so free, yeah...

I think that this is the life for me

2nd Verse:

I'm riding on the surf, I'm gonna milk it all it's worth

This is a pleasure palace where vice is nice

This may not be reality, but nobody better se me free

Nut now I'm here I'm gonna stay

'cos I know I'll never ever get the chance again

Chorus:

I don't wanna recover

From this spell I'm under

California U.S.A.

Oh I know I'm dreaming

But can't you see I'm in

California U.S.A.

3rd Verse:

There is so much high life

I don't think that I'll ever come down

I feel as cool as the breeze

Oh...so many girls

But I get this one coming up to me

She's got a face like an alligator

She said "Honey do you wanna dance?"

I said "I'll catch yer later, much later!"

Repeat Chorus

Ad libs over bass/drums

Repeat Chorus
