Chocolate’s in the safe, wine’s in the cupboards. dirty door with choco-nuts; glass for ice at two. Just California Dreamin’. What-a shack-a-lak.
Bull’s under sofa. See me in the mirror? That’s how you know it’s serious.
Gun’s downstairs on the alabaster tray. It’s all the sea coast way.
Cozy on the beach with the sand colored hair. A long way off out there.
Tell me crazy; what people say. But, I’m not checking. Alone.
Outta there. Goin alone. Out like here is the place to leave.
Checkin’ out alone. Rusted out car. Weasel’s battered techno blocks. Back yard and busted glass. Oak’s in play.
Voices. Sayin and sayin. Telling and how. Doin and ok I’m up. Noon n’ all. That’s all. Right? Cali dreamin.
Eyes shut wide. To golden light. Sutter street, Montgomery far away. Cavern’s crazy height. And I, ‘cause it all, on the tray. She say stay!
