[Verse 1]

Psychic spies from China try to steal your mind's elation

And little girls from Sweden dream of silver-screen quotation

And if you want these kind of dreams, it's Californication

[Verse 2]

It's the edge of the world and all of Western civilization

The sun may rise in the East, at least it settled in a final location

It's understood that Hollywood sells Californication

[Pre-Chorus]

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging

Celebrity skin: is this your chin or is that war you're waging?

First born unicorn

Hardcore soft porn

[Chorus]

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

[Verse 3]

Marry me, girl, be my fairy to the world, be my very own constellation

A teenage bride with a baby inside getting high on information

And buy me a star on the boulevard, it's Californication

[Verse 4]

Space may be the final frontier but it's made in a Hollywood basement

And Cobain, can you hear the spheres singing songs off Station to Station??

And Alderaan's not far away, it's Californication

[Pre-Chorus]

Born and raised by those who praise control of population

Well, everybody's been there, and I don't mean on vacation

First born unicorn

Hardcore soft porn

[Chorus]

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]

Destruction leads to a very rough road but it also breeds creation

And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar, they're just another good vibration

And tidal waves couldn't save the world from Californication

[Pre-Chorus]

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging

Sicker than the rest, there is no test, but this is what you're craving

First born unicorn

Hardcore soft porn

[Chorus]

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication
