Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]Wouldn't ever gag you with a spoon,
my only true love
Never really heard you speak that way,
it's unworthy of
Funny how that little [F]college girl
called [C]language corrupt
Funny how the other private [F]schools
had no [C]Hapa Club

[Verse 2]
[C]Someone took a trip before
you came to ski in the Alps
Your father moved across the country
just to sunburn his scalp
Contra Costa, Contra Mundum,
[G]contradict [C]what I say
Living [G]like the French Connection,
but we'll die in [F]LA[C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Blasted from a disconnected
[C]light switch
[G]Through the condo that they'll
never fin[C]ish
[G]Bounced across a Saudi satel[C]lite dish
And [G]through your brain to
California Eng[C]lish

[Interlude 1]
[C]

[Verse 4]
[C]No one sits inside a freezing flat
and [F]stays there [C]'til May
Leafing through a stack of A
to Z's to surf the UK
Waiting with the wind against your
face and gel in your hair
Shivering in little undershirts,
but don't seem to [F]care[C]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Blasted from a [G]disconnected
[C]light switch
[G]Through the condo that they'll never finish
[C]Bou[G]nced across a Saudi satellite dish
[C]And [G]through your brain
to California [C]English
[G]Sweet carob

[Verse 6]
[C]rice [G]cake
She [F]don't care how the [C]sweets taste
[F]Fake Philly cheese steak
But [G]she use real [C]toothpaste
[F]'Cause if that

[Verse 7]
Tom's don't work
[Em]If it just makes you worse[G][F]
Would you loose all of you [G]faith
in the [C]good [F]Earth

[Verse 8]
And if it's [F]all a [C]curse
[Em]And we're just getting w[G]orse[F]
Baby, please don't [G]lose your faith in the [C]good [F]earth

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 9]
[G]Blasted from a disconnected
light [C]switch
[G]Through [F]the condo [G]that
they'll never [C]finish
[G]Bounced across a Saudi satel[C]lite dish
And through [G]your brain to California English
[C][F][C]

[Verse 10]
[Em]Blasted [G]from a disconnected
[C]light [F]switch[C]
[G]Through the condo that
they'll never [F]finish[C]
[G]Bounced across a Saudi
satellite [C]dish
And through [G]your brain to California English
[C]
