It Never Rains in Southern California
Rainy Emotions: Unveiling the Heartfelt Journey in Southern California
Lyrics
Got on board a westbound seven forty seven
Boarding a westbound 747, indicating a journey or relocation.
Didn't think before deciding what to do
Acting impulsively without careful consideration.
All that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies
Referring to promises of opportunities in the entertainment industry (TV, movies).
Rang true, sure rang true
Acknowledging the truth in the promises made.
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Expressing the common belief that it rarely rains in Southern California.
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
Noting familiarity with similar optimistic statements.
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya
Contradicting the belief by stating that it does rain and cautioning against false expectations.
It pours, man, it pours
Emphasizing the intensity of unexpected challenges or problems.
Out of work, I'm out of my head
Listing personal struggles: unemployment, emotional distress, and financial difficulties.
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread
Highlighting a loss of dignity and financial stability.
I'm under loved, I'm underfed
Expressing feelings of being unloved and undernourished.
I wanna go home
Longing to return home, possibly a metaphor for finding comfort and stability.
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya
Reiterating the contradiction of the belief about the lack of rain in California.
It pours, man, it pours
Reemphasizing the unexpected and challenging nature of life's difficulties.
Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it
Asking someone to convey a message about almost succeeding but facing decisions.
Had offers but don't know which one to take
Indicating uncertainty in choosing among various opportunities.
Please, don't tell 'em how you found me
Pleading not to disclose the circumstances of finding the speaker.
Don't tell 'em how you found me
Repeating the request for discretion.
Give me a break, give me a break
Expressing a desire for understanding and leniency.
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Restating the belief that it rarely rains in Southern California.
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
Recalling previous encounters with optimistic statements.
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya
Warning again about the reality of unexpected challenges.
It pours, man, it pours
Reiterating the intensity of life's challenges in California.
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Repeating the notion that it rarely rains in Southern California.
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
Echoing the familiarity with optimistic statements about the weather.
