Now the intro begins again

Reapeat Chorus

Lyrics (these took me a really long time)

Psychic spies from China try to  steal your minds elation

little girls from sweeden dream of silver screen quotations

and if you want these kind of dreams its californication.

Its the edge of the world

And all of western civization

The sun may rise in the east

At least it settles in the final location

It`s understood that Hollywood sell Californication

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of ageing

Celerity skin is this your chin or is that the 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 of information

And buy me a star on the boulavard its californication

Space may be the final frontier but its made

in a hollywood basement

Cobain can you hear the spreres

singing songs off station to station

And alderons not far away its californication

Born and raised by who praise

Control of population everybodys been there and i dont

mean on vaction

Chorus

Destruction leads to a very rough road but it also 

breeds creation

And earthquakes are to a girls guitar

therye just another good vibration

and tidal waves couldent save the world from californication

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of ageing

sicker than the rest 

there is no test

but is this what your craving

Well that is it I had alot of fun doing this and it took me alot of time.
