California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles I'm your governor Pete Wilson, ya know The baddest governor to ever grab the mic and go BOOOM! Gimme a budget and watch me hack it! Gimme a beat and I'll show you how to jack it! I give the rich a giant tax loophole I leave the poor living in a poophole At time when AIDS is in a crisis I cut health care and I raise prices Sales tax, snack tax, excise tax Information attack with a newspaper tax Hit the pocket books of working families Increase tuition at the universities Some day I'll command all o' you Even your kids are gonna pray to me in school Soon I'm gonna be the president You might remember the last one this state sent California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles I'm so proud to know the Great Communicator Wanna be known as the Great Incarcerator I'll blow environmentalists away And I'll be the fuhrer some day I'll keep cuttin' Public Education Even though we rank 45th in the nation I've got a plan for all the minorities Send'em to the California Youth Authorities From San Francisco Urban Elementary To Pelican Bay State Penitentiary There they can work for the master race And always wear a happy face Close your eyes, it can't happen here Big Brother in a squad car's comin' near Come enjoy the surf and the sun And keep California number one! California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles (California über alles) (California über alles) Now it's 1992 Knock knock at your front door, yo guess who?! It's the suede denim secret police They've come to your house for your longhaired niece Gonna send her off to a camp Cause she's been accused of growing hemp Don't you worry it's only a shower And now for your clothes here's a pretty flower Gonna die on malathion gas The serpent's egg has always been hatched People starvin' and livin' in the streets Because they tried to mess with me President Pete California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles California über alles
