Lyrics
Living out of airports and wanted ads
Living a transient lifestyle, relying on airport living and searching for job opportunities.
Gotta couple sweaters and a crate of records
Possessing a few belongings like sweaters and a collection of records.
Always asking strangers here about their favorite bands
Engaging with strangers to learn about their favorite music bands.
Jump around like you're a kid playing checkers
Behaving energetically, reminiscent of a carefree child playing checkers.
Oh, the place loose change collects
Describing the places where small change tends to accumulate.
And every town you've ever left
Reflecting on every town left behind.
You can always go back home
Expressing the possibility of returning to one's hometown.
To California
Specifically mentioning California as the destination to return to.
Struggling to fit in and needin friends
Struggling to fit into new environments and craving companionship.
Feeling sick and you feel lonely
Experiencing both physical and emotional discomfort, leading to feelings of loneliness.
bookin shows all planned for weekends
Planning and organizing musical performances on weekends.
Bigger than real life, if only
Yearning for a life that feels larger and more significant than the current one.
When you heard about the fires
Reacting to news about wildfires, considering organizing a benefit event.
you thought you could do a benefit
Contemplating the idea of contributing to the community affected by fires.
Or Maybe you should just go home
Weighing the option of returning home instead of getting involved in the benefit effort.
Oh, the place loose change collects
Reiterating the idea of accumulating small change in various places.
And every town you've ever left
Recalling the towns left behind once again.
It's time for you to go back home
Deciding that it's time to return home, particularly to California.
To California
Reaffirming the destination as California, signaling the final decision to go back.
