California

My daddy was a banking man
My mama was a thief
My mama taught me how to stand
My daddy taught me how to cheat
I will rob you till you're blind
I will love you till I cry
I will kiss you seven times
When I crucify you

Tell the wind to find herself another man
Blow a thousand kisses to forgotten lovers
Touch me where my thinking turns to circumstance
Hop into my car we'll drive to California

My mama was a wanted man
My daddy was a priest
My mama taught me how to stand
My daddy taught me how to please
I will rob you till you're blind
I will love you till I cry
I will kiss you seven times
When I crucify you

My daddy was a banking man
My mama was a thief
My mama taught me how to stand
My daddy taught me how to cheat
