[Verse 1]
Carousels on the pier
When things were easier
A child smile and pirate eyes
Thought it was merely love
[Pre-Chorus]
Saying ooo-oh, ooh-oh
You pull me in with your paradise
Saying ooo-oh, ooh-oh
What I would do to feel alive
[Chorus]
California, how I hate to love ya
Can't get sober, do anything for ya
It's a good dream until I wake up
Think we can make it, baby you're my
California
[Verse 2]
Beautiful silicone
Too good to be for real
Ride or die, keep me high, oh just enough to feel
[Pre-Chorus]
Saying ooo-oh, ooh-oh
You pull me in with your paradise
Saying ooo-oh, ooh-oh
What I would do to feel alive
[Chorus]
California, how I hate to love ya
Can't get sober, do anything for ya
It's a good dream until I wake up
Think we can make it, baby you're my
California
[Bridge]
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, oooh
[Chorus]
California, how I hate to love ya
Can't get sober, do anything for ya
It's a good dream until I wake up
Think we can make it, baby you're my
California
