lyrics

You're so funny
You're so funny
I can hear you all the way, clear across the country
You never if you're behaving
You're your mother's favorite baby
But your father don't know quite what to do with you, boy
Did you get what you came for?
Did you get what you wanted?
Put a ring on her finger, and she might give you a daughter
Will it fix all of the problems you've had since you were in college And you haven't figured out what to do with them yet?
It's the right thing
Listen to your heart sing
Listen to the feeling
Listen to it beating, it's pleading Listen to your pain
Listen to what your mama says So, you do what you gotta
And you take what you want to
But you better leave me You better leave me with California California
You're so stupid
I think you're so stupid
Did you think that the whole world is tryin' to bring you to your ruins? You can dress it in disguises
But there should be no surprises
When there will always come a time you've got to deal with it
I put everything you gave me
In a cardboard box
Drive it to the corner of the neighborhood thrift shop If it's from you, I don't want it
But some lucky sucker coming in this week
Will find some really good shit
It's the right thing
To listen to your heart sing
I listen to the freeway
The sound of you leaving
It's freeing
Listen to me soar
I'm not afraid of you anymore So you do what you gotta
And you take what you want to

But you better leave me You better leave me with California California
It's always been the right thing To listen to my heart sing Listen to the freeway
Listen to me speeding
It's freeing
Listen, I am sure
Not listening to you anymore So you do what you gotta
And you take what you want to
But you better leave me You better leave me with California California
