Californication
AROUND THE WORLD
All around the world We could make time Rompin’ and a stompin’ ’Cause I’m in my prime
Born in the north And sworn to entertain ya ’Cause I’m down for The state of Pennsylvania
I try not to whine But I must warn ya ’Bout the girls From California
Alabama baby Said hallelujah Good god girl I wish I knew ya
I know I know for sure That life is beautiful around the world I know I know it’s you You say hello and then I say I do
Come back baby ’Cause I’d like to say I’ve been around the world Back from Bombay
Fox hole love Pie in your face Living in and out Of a big fat suitcase
Bonafide ride Step aside my Johnson Yes I could In the woods of Wisconsin
Wake up the cake It’s a lake she’s kissin’ me As they do when When they do in Sicily
I know I know for sure That life is beautiful around the world I know I know it’s you You say hello and then I say I do
Where you want to go Who you want to be What you want to do Just come with me
I saw God And I saw the fountains You and me girl Sittin’ in the Swiss mountains
Me Oh My O Me and Guy O Freer than a bird ’Cause we’re rockin’ Ohio
Around the world I feel dutiful Take a wife ’Cause life is beautiful
I know I know for sure $%%&*^&^$#$@##%&^*(*(&%%^$%$ I know I know it’s you &*%^$#@#$%^&*&()**%%$#@#$%*%
Mother Russia do not suffer I know you’re bold enough I’ve been around the world And I have seen your love I know I know it’s you
You say hello then I say I do
PARALLEL UNIVERSE
Deep inside of a parallel universe It’s getting harder and harder To tell what came first
Under water where thoughts can breathe Easily
Far away you were made in a sea Just like me
Chorus: Christ I’m a sidewinder I’m a California King I swear it’s everywhere It’s everything
Staring straight up into the sky Oh my my a solar system that fits In your eye Microcosm
You could die but your never dead spider web Take a look at the stars in Your head fields of space kid
Chorus x 2
Psychic changes are born in your heart Entertain A nervous breakthrough that makes us the same Bless your heart girl
Kill the pressure it’s raining on Salty Cheeks When you hear the beloved song I am with you
Chorus x 2
SCAR TISSUE
Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know it all Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ’cause With the birds I’ll share With the birds I’ll share This lonely view With the birds I’ll share This lonely view
Push me up against the wall Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra Fallin’ all over myself To lick your heart and taste your health ’cause With the birds I’ll share This lonely view...
Blood loss in a bathroom stall Southern girl with a scarlet drawl Wave good-bye to ma and pa ’cause With the birds I’ll share With the birds I’ll share This lonely view With the birds I’ll share This lonely view
Soft spoken with a broken jaw Step outside but not to brawl Autumn’s sweet we call it fall I’ll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and With the birds I’ll share This lonely view...
Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know it all Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ’cause With the birds I’ll share With the birds I’ll share This lonely view With the birds I’ll share This lonely view...
OTHERSIDE
Chorus: How long how long will I slide Separate my side I don’t I don’t believe it’s bad Slit my throat It’s all I ever
I heard your voice through a photograph I thought it up it brought up the past Once you know you can never go back I’ve got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me A cemetery where I marry the sea Stranger things could never change my mind I’ve got to take it on the otherside Take it on the otherside Take it on Take it on
Chorus
Pour my life into a paper cup The ashtray’s full and I’m spillin’ my guts She wants to know am I still a slut I’ve got to take it on the otherside
Scarlet starlet and she’s in my bed A candidate for my soul mate bled Push the trigger and pull the thread I’ve got to take it on the otherside Take it on the otherside Take it on Take it on
Chorus
Turn me on take me for a hard ride Burn me out leave me on the otherside I yell and tell it that It’s not my friend I tear it down I tear it down And then it’s born again
Chorus
How long I don’t believe it’s bad Slit my throat It’s all I ever
GET ON TOP
Get on Top Get on Top
Hit me come get me I bite but she bit me
Go-rilla cunt-illa Sammy D and Salmonella Come with me ’cause I’m an ass killer You’re ill but I’m iller
I’ll malinger on your block and Give the finger to a cop and Pick a lock before I knock and Set you up to get on top
Chorus: Complications of a mastermind Last temptation of my kind Extra planetary sign When do we align All in time Right on
Get up come sit up I light but she lit up
Grass Hopper Show Stopper The life of a Wife Swapper Come with me ’cause I’m a big bopper You do but I wopper
Exterminate my cause You want to draw some straws Be the one to see my flaws Make me bleed with painted claws
Chorus
Get on Top Get on Top
Hit me come get me I bite but she bit me

I’ll malinger on your block Give the finger to a cop and Pick a lock before I knock on Set you up to get on top

CALIFORNICATION
Psychic spies from China Try to steal your mind’s elation Little girls from Sweden Dream of silver screen quotations And if you want these kind of dreams It’s Californication
It’s the edge of the world And all of western civilization The sun may rise in the East At least it settles in the final location It’s understood that Hollywood sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well To break the spell of aging Celebrity skin is this your chin Or is that war your waging
Chorus: First born unicorn Hard core soft porn Dream of Californication Dream of Californication
Marry me girl be my fairy to the world Be my very own constellation A teenage bride with a baby inside Getting high on information And buy me a star on the boulevard It’s Californication
Space may be the final frontier But it’s made in a Hollywood basement Cobain can you hear the spheres Singing songs off station to station And Alderon’s not far away It’s Californication
Born and raised by those who praise Control of population everybody’s been there and I don’t mean on vacation
Chorus
Destruction leads to a very rough road But it also breeds creation And earthquakes are to a girl’s guitar They’re just another good vibration And tidal waves couldn’t save the world From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well To break the spell of aging Sicker than the rest There is no test But this is what you’re craving
Chorus
EASILY
Easily let’s get carried away Easily let’s get married today Shao Lin shouted a rose From his throat Everything must go A lickin’ stick is thicker When you break it to show Everything must go
The story of a woman on the morning of a war Remind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting for
Calling calling for something in the air Calling calling I know you must be there
Easily let’s get caught in a wave Easily we won’t get caught in a cage Shao Lin shakin’ for the sake Of his soul — Everything must go Lookin’ mighty tired of All the things that you own Everything must go
I can’t tell you who to idolize You think it’s almost over But it’s only on the rise Calling calling For something in the air Calling calling I know you must be there
The story of a woman on the morning of a war Remind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting for
Throw me to the wolves because Because there’s order in the pack Throw me to the sky Because I know I’m coming back
Shao Lin shakin’ for the sake Of his soul — Everything must go Lookin’ mighty tired of All the things that you own Everything must go
The story of a woman on the morning of a war Remind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting for
Calling calling for something in the air Calling calling I know you must be there
I don’t want to be your little research monkey boy The creature that I am is only going to destroy
Throw me to the wolves Because there’s order in the pack Throw me to the sky Because I know I’m coming back
Easily
PORCELAIN
Porcelain Are you wasting away in your skin Are you missing the love of your kin Drifting and floating and fading away
Porcelain Do you smell like a girl when you smile Can you bear not to share with your child Drifting and floating and fading away
Little lune All day Little lune
Porcelain Do you carry the moon in your womb Someone said that you’re fading too soon Drifting and floating and fading away
Porcelain Are you wasting away in your skin Are you missing the love of your kin Nodding and melting and fading away
Little lune All day Little lune...
EMIT REMMUS
The California animal is a bear Angeleno but the devil may care Summer time to talk and swear Later maybe we could share some air I’ll take you to the movies there We could walk through Leicester Square What could be wetter than An English girl American man
Chorus: London in the summer time Call me now use the satellite London in the summer time Cuss me out and it’ll feel all right
Hesitate but don’t refuse The choice was yours but you said choose The look she used was green and sharp Stabbed that boy all in his heart Come what may the cosmos will Take me up and down on Primrose Hill What could be wetter than An English girl American man
Chorus
Cuss me out and it’ll feel all right It’s all right now Call me now use the satellite It’s all right It’s all right
Down and out and it’ll sound all right It’s all right now It’s all right
The California flower is poppy child Felony sends me all the gold in your smile Drift away from anyone you can Nothing ever goes according to plan Though I know that every river bends Time to say hello to snow on the Thames What could be wetter than An English girl American man
Chorus
I LIKE DIRT
Some come up and some come young Live to love and give good tongue Sit down get down in the sun Rocket to the woman is on the one
Chorus: I like dirt I like dirt I like dirt I like dirt
The earth is made of dirt and wood And I’d be water if I could Live in a dream In your stream Live in a dream
Some come up and some come young Live to love and give good tongue Sit down get down in the sun Rocket to the woman is on the one
Chorus
Some come slow and overload Must roll over when you’re told Let’s unzip and let’s unfold A letter to the pet better get it to go
Chorus
Space is made of everything And I’d be fire that I bring Live in a dream In your spring Live in a dream
Some come slow and overload Must roll over when you’re told Let’s unzip and let’s unfold A letter to the pet better get it to go
Chorus
Some come up and some come young Live to love and give good tongue Sit down get down in the sun Rocket to the woman is on the one
Chorus
Some come up and some come young Live to love and give good tongue Sit down get down in the sun Rocket to the woman is on the one
THIS VELVET GLOVE
Close to my skin I’m falling in Someone who’s been
Sittin’ by the phone I’m left alone In another zone
John says to live above hell My will is well
No one is waiting For me to fail My will could sail yeah
It’s such a waste to be wasted In the first place I want to taste the taste of Being face to face with common grace To meditate on the warmest dream And when I walk alone I listen To our secret theme
Your solar eyes are like Nothing I have ever seen Somebody close That can see right through I’d take a fall and you know That I’d do anything I will for you
Sailin’ for the sun ’Cause There is one Knows where I’m from
I care for you I really do I really do
Come closer now So you can lie Right by my side
Sit alone in the sun I wrote a letter to you Getting over myself
Your solar eyes are like Nothing I have ever seen Somebody close That can see right through I’d take a fall and you know That I’d do anything I will for you
Your solar eyes are like Nothing I have ever seen Somebody close That was made for you I’d take a fall and you know That I’d do anything I will for you
Close to my skin Someone who’s been I’m a falling in
Disasters are Just another star Falling in my yard
John says to live above hell My will is well
Long to be with Someone to tell I love your smell

’Til death do us part Break my heart so I can start
Supercalifragilistic Kiss me in the futuristic Twisted but I must insist It’s time to get on top of this

Discard to bombard Calling all you shooting stars
Holy cow bow wow wow Now I’m here I’m nowhere now
Joan of Arc reincarnated Maybe we could be related So much blood to circulate And so much space to decorate Chorus
Plain and simple pain I want to but I can’t complain
Death row let us go It’s time to blow up for the show
All the world reverberated Coming through we motorcaded Vibrate when we operated Turning up in solid stated
Oh Lord

Let’s go get lost Let’s go get lost
Chorus: Blue you sit so pretty West of the one Sparkles light with yellow icing Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun
These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for
So much as come before those battles lost and won This life is shining more forever in the sun Now let us check our heads And let us check the surf Staying high and dry’s More trouble than it’s worth In the sun
Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun
These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for
In Big Sur we take some time to linger on We three hunky dory’s got our snakefinger on Now let us drink the stars It’s time to steal away Let’s go get lost Right here in the U.S.A
Chorus
These smiling eyes are just a mirror for These smiling eyes are just a mirror for Your smiling eyes are just a mirror for
