cmat – california lyrics

[verse 1]
a new game scr+pping my life
it was you out back with a b+tter knife
who took my parts, buried ’em with the dog
not great, but what did i think
that a bouncy castle catholic could give to me
but a little wine and god?

[pre+chorus]
so i’m working on a wreckage
with nothing there to salvage
oh, i’m just taking photos
for my book about the damage and
some have called me cheap
but it’s not that f+cking deep
like, what’s left for me but poetry
and getting really old?

[chorus]
i’m heading to california
don’t say i didn’t warn you
i’m milking what i can from this grief
i’m heading to california
don’t say i didn’t warn you
i’m writing for the peace you wouldn’t leave
[verse 2]
a cold call to get me out
of your big boys’ starving artist’s house
but you drove me there and opened up the doors
now i trade in english, dear
my nanny’s nanny’s nanny’s fears
are living here along with all of yours, oh, yeah

[pre+chorus]
whinging like a woman is
hedging on what’s coming
’cause everybody likes me
when my pain is in a sonnet
and you can call me cheap
but you did this sh+t to me
made me brilliant, you f+cked me up
and i’m reaping what you’ve sown

[chorus]
i’m heading to california
don’t say i didn’t warn you
i’m milking what i can from this grief
i’m heading to california
don’t say i didn’t warn you
i’m writing for the peace you wouldn’t leave
[post+chorus]
i’m heading to california
don’t say i didn’t warn you
i’m finishing the hat like we agreed
i’m heading to california
i wonder, is it torture
harvesting all this misery?

[outro]
california, oh+woah
california, oh+woah
california, oh+woah (i’m writing up a book about us)
california, oh+woah (they’re gonna make a movie of it)
california, oh+woah (they’re gonna cast jake gyllenhaal)
california, oh+woah (and i’m kristen schaal)
california, oh+woah (they’re gonna do it with a coen brother)
california, oh+woah (set it in wicklow with your mother)
california, oh+woah (oh no, it won a razzie)
california, oh+woah (it’s all for nothing, should’ve just tried being happy)
