When the sun sets beneath the mountain tops 
And the water begins to rise 
I try to contain my excitement 
But the force of the night conquers my surprise 
Kids on the street corner peddlin' maps 
On how to meet the stars 
Prostitute turns, my body burns 
She'll cure your loneliness for half an hour 

Cars breeze dow-own the avenue 
Rock 'n' roll's suspended in mid air 
A girl cha-anting nonsense takes my money 
Puts a flower in my hair 
Billboards grin and my head spins 
This may be heaven but it's not my home 
All the sunshine and beautiful people 
Make me feel more and more alone 

Southern California, where your dreams almost come true 
Southern California, where everyone's a star except for you 
Southern California, like a beautiful girl you cannot touch 
Everyone lives forever here, those were my thoughts 

And I don't wanna be a part of that all American dream 
But still I keep on comin' back, I can't let it get the best of me 
(The best of me, best of me) 
Lord give me the strength to see myself clearly, see myself clearly 
Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh, and time flies by like a meteor in the sky-y 
And I'm wondering is it just me 
Everything seems so perfect like some commercial on TV (on TV, TV, TV) 
Lord give us the strength to show real feelings, real feelings 

In Southern California, where your dreams almost come true 
In Southern California, where everyone's a star except for you 
Southern California, like a beautiful girl you cannot touch 
Everyone lives forever here, everyone lives forever here 
Everyone lives forever here, everyone lives forever here 
Everyone lives forever here, everyone lives forever here 
Everyone lives forever here
