The Queen of California
She can save you with a punchline
She can be a submarine
Deep and silent as a hurricane whips the sea
Whips the sea
She found me the way the nick of time
Slaps the hand that holds the gun
She’s the queen of California
And she thinks you might be the sun
And the love she gives
Oh, you know you don’t deserve it
But you take it, that’s your way
And the love she gives
Oh, you swear you will preserve it
But you break her, that’s your way
She needs you the way a city needs
Boastful pride and shameless greed
She’s the queen of California
And she thinks you might be the sea
And the love she gives
Oh, you know you don’t deserve it
But you take it, that’s your way
And the love she gives
Oh, you swear you will preserve it
But you break her, that’s your way
