Eastside style with a Westside smile
I’m on a Peugeot in the Palisades
woah that’s different but it’s cool different
hear the tambo rattle of the rattlesnake
we were hangin’ underneath the bleachers
in my army green colored cargo shorts
I stopped & stuttered turnaround and muttered
damn, I guess I’m a dork
AHHH!
yeah yeah yeah
catch me by the bluffs when the sun goes down
a buzzin’ barfly in Silver lake
feels like Summer in September ‘neath the Eucalyptus
end the verses with a shake shake
we were hangin’ underneath the bleachers
in my army green colored cargo shorts
I stopped & stuttered turnaround and muttered
damn, I guess I’m a dork
AHHH!
yeah yeah yeah
I’m feeling mellow
your feeling mellow
we’re feeling mellow yellow in the parking lot
uh huh

I can see it when I look into her eyes
and I don’t have to wonder (baby baby, baby baby)
if it’s real, because it’s real
ooh ooh Malibu ’79

c’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon

and the memory lasts
but I miss the feeling of belonging too
when the days were longer (baby baby, baby baby)
‘cuz now I’m older, nights are a little bit colder
ooh ooh Malibu ’79
it was a blue summer swimming in her eyes
c’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon

California Girl

I was heading down Sunset
had the fold-up convertible down
I took a left at Patricks Roadhouse
past the cliffs up & into town
I said I don’t know where I’m going
but I’m out & I’m looking for fun
they say lightning doesn’t strike in the same place twice
well I’m underneath the summer sun
California girl (California girl)
summer in her eyes (summer in her eyes)
from the golden coast (from the golden coast)
I saw her passing by (there she goes)
California girl (been looking for a)
California girl (been dreaming of a)
California girl and there she was woah oh oh oh
She was hanging by the laundry mat from the trunk of a Wagoneer
I saw a sun-bleached copy of On The Road while I was countin’ empty
bottles of beer
I said I don’t know where I’m going
but I’m out and I’m looking for fun
it’s the last slow song of the night so take chance don’t regret for
the rest of your life
California girl (California girl)
summer in her eyes (summer in her eyes)
from the golden coast (from the golden coast)
I saw her passing by (there she goes)
California girl (been looking for a)
California girl (been dreaming of a)
California girl and there she was woah oh oh oh
OUTRO
ooooh California girl, I think I fell in love with a California girl

Lonely Without You
02:46
|
|||
See the lizard and the firefly
and the smoke blow through the trees
on a warm cicada night
the sea was empty bottle green
and you were staring at the fire as it shouldered to ash
had a vision of a love flashing from the past
we were together I said we could be forever woah oh oh
as the days go by I’m getting older
see the albatross over your shoulder
and I’m wiser than I was ..
but the nights are just a little bit colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
as I long for yesterday, the feelings wash away woah oh oh
heading north up to SummerLand
flying down Jalama ’til our wheels hit the sand
and we’re together
you said we could be forever woah oh oh
as the days go by I’m getting older
see the albatross over you shoulder
and I’m wiser than I was ..
but the night are just a little bit colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
colder
(a little bit, just a little bit)
as I long for yesterday, the feelings wash away woah oh oh
lonely without you (fades)

Red-Yellow Bonfire

Red-Yellow Bonfire
On an open road with nowhere to go
anyway the wind will blow
I want to roll the windows down
and just take it slow
hear the wolves howling in the dead of night
the hidden lizard and the firefly
cuz’ it use to be easy, back when it was easy
red-yellow bonfire through the trees
pale white moon up above the leaves
I’ve got a quarter in my pocket and I don’t want to drop it cuz’ I’m
ice cream soda popping
I bought an old poncho ’74
rolling off the diving board
I want to see the sun go down and just ride a wave to shore
hear the wolves howling in the dead of night
the hidden lizard and the firefly
cuz’ it use to be easy, back when it was easy
red-yellow bonfire through the trees
pale white moon up above the leaves
I’ve got a quarter in my pocket and I don’t want to drop it cuz’ I’m
ice cream soda popping
it use to be easy (do-do do-do do do do) back when it was easy
(do-do do-do do do do)
ooh ohh oooh why’s it have to be so hard, easy easy but I was in the
dark
red-yellow bonfire through the trees
pale white moon up above the leaves
I’ve got a quarter in my pocket and I don’t want to drop it cuz’ I’m
ice cream soda popping
it use to be easy (do-do do-do do do do) back when it was easy
(do-do do-do do do do)

From The Rafters
02:32
|
|||
roll out of bed
huaraches and a poncho
looking for lefts
on the bumper of a Bronco
shooting bb guns at the coke cans
wore a shoelace as a headband
tied the mattress down to the top of the van
singing Californ-i-a
in the dark there is a light that shines above me
and it doesn’t die, from the rafters!
lost the ceiling lights
flickering bulbs are no longer bright
shooting Pali off onto Sunset
in a 911 or a white corvette
playing OBT on the tape cassette
singing Californ-i-a
in the dark there is a light that shines above me
and it doesn’t die, from the rafters!
from the rafters above 2x
from the rafters above the light will come through
old dusty cobwebs and shine, on you, on you, on you

Champion Of The Beach
03:35
|

We went down down down to see
the vacant lot on Bleaker St.
an eerie calm from beyond the break
tambourine rattle of the rattlesnake
the day was old the night was young we were underneath the hot hot sun
into the unknown
shimmy shimmy coco puff ooh lala
drinking the tequila til the ‘quila was gone
the clock strikes midnight 1&2
I was walking choppy like a long-necked goose
the day was old the night was young we were underneath the hot hot sun
into the unknown
We went down down down to see
on a white Peugeot with a black rubber seat
legs danglin’ off the back
board tied down with a bunjee strap
the day was old the night was young we were underneath the hot hot sun
into the unknown
shimmy shimmy coco puff ooh lala
drinking the tequila til the ‘quila was gone
the clock strikes midnight 1&2
I was walking choppy like a long-necked goose
the day was old the night was young we were underneath the hot hot sun
into the unknown
birdrock blastoff turtle roll
midnight surfing drop the bowl
holy moly guacamole cannonball into a roly-poly
at Pancho’s Left it was me & Jeff
on our way to SummerLand on an old school cruiser popsicle until our
wheels hit the sand
GO!
Champion of the beach!
(talking)
to separate the men from boys they drew a line in the sand
and in the end the dust will settle and only one will stand
so gather round sound the horn for everyone to see
who they call the champ, Champion of the Beach

Summer Moon
03:23
|

A summer moon in December
waiting on the clouds to pass
a purple haze hung above us
darkens ’til the night is black
there was a summer moon in the winter
until the sunshine eases through
you left me waiting on a postcard
signed always & forever P.S. I miss you
until the sun goes down beyond the sea
a shadow in the dark covers you & me
underneath the stars there was moonlight on the beach
ooh ooh summer moon
summer moon
ooh ooh summer moon
looking up into a blue sky
where the cliff edge comes to the shore
if summer love lasts a lifetime
then this isn’t goodbye ‘cuz I’m forever yours
until the sun goes down beyond the sea
a shadow in the dark covers you & me
underneath the stars there was moonlight on the beach
ooh ooh summer moon
summer moon
ooh ooh summer moon
