California Dreams

I quit my job today Texted my boss, she just said k Packed up my car and I headed to LA Wish it didn't sound so cliche Answered an ad and joined a band None of us could play but we still jammed We finally booked a show Invited everyone we know and we made Eleven dollars in an envelope California Dreams Be anything that you want to be Nothing's for free Sell your soul for your rent money Everybody's high Golden state of mind Got a song on the radio It's pretty cool, but I'm still broke My mother said she's proud of me, can't wait to see the show Dad still thinks that I'm a joke California Dreams Be anything that you want to be Nothing's for free Pay your dues and your parking fees Everything is fine Golden state of mind Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh California Dreams Whoa oh oh oh Oh man it's been a week Sold out show at the greek I can't stop thinking bout when I saw Dad out in the crowd And He was singing every word back to me California Dreams Be anything that you want to be Get what you need Just don't forget your family Everything is fine Golden state of mind yea California Dreams Ain't always what they seem to be Nothing comes easy Hold on to your sanity Everybody's high Golden state of mind Everything is fine Golden state of mind Everything is fine Golden state of mind
