24 and I’m almost over Wasted when I try to be sober Feeling down so you try to get fucked up You’re up but you’re still down on your luck Met a girl on the 4th of July, Celebrations only lasted one night She OD’d in back of my car Turns out she likes to see stars
That’s the life of a rockstar baby Coming with me, don’t say maybe We’ll fuck around for a few years later Then buy a house in the suburbs with neighbours Four kids sitting happy by the poolside All the memories tattooed on my mind Even though this all ends someday I hope the music never dies
California what a way to die When the stars are falling and you don’t know why California what a way to die What a way to die
In the motel gun to your head Who the hell is this lying in bed You blacked out when the sky was still blue People say what happened to you You went away when the new guy moved in To your head, no you’re living in sin All the girls left draped in the flag Strung out and high on hashtags
That’s the life of a rockstar baby Coming with me, don’t say maybe We’ll fuck around for a few years later Then buy a house in the suburbs with neighbours Four kids sitting happy by the poolside All the memories tattooed on my mind Even though this all ends someday I hope the music never dies
California what a way to die When the stars are falling and you don’t know why California what a way to die What a way to die
