Lyrics
California I never got around to you
Expressing regret for not exploring or visiting California.
Although we started this band and I thought we were gonna break through
Despite forming a band with high hopes of success, it didn't reach the expected level.
We really thought that we could go far
The band believed they had potential for significant success.
Instead we ended up drinking beer in our local bar
Instead of achieving fame, they ended up spending time at a local bar.
Heroes and villains, standup comedians anywhere you look
Observing various personas—heroes, villains, comedians—pervading society.
Now suddenly we`re on the same page in this book
Feeling a sudden alignment or connection with others in their circumstances.
Doctors and lawyers factory employers all sharing the same fear
People from different professions facing similar anxieties or worries.
Now the numbers are looking ugly everywhere
A general sense of negative trends and situations prevailing.
Now I`m watching movies cause every shop has closed down
Due to closures, resorting to watching movies.
I`m watching this queen who doesn`t seem to want her crown
Observing someone refusing or seemingly uninterested in their position of power.
Now these are hard times, I think I better call Saul
Feeling the difficulty of the times, referencing a character for guidance.
If there`s a hero in this world, now is the time stand up and save us all
A call for someone heroic to emerge and save the situation.
Heroes and villains, standup comedians anywhere you look
Reiteration of varied personas existing everywhere.
Now suddenly we`re on the same page in this book
Continued sense of shared experiences with others.
Doctors and lawyers factory employers sharing the same fear
Similar fears or worries among different professions.
Now the numbers are looking ugly everywhere
Continued mention of negative or concerning statistics.
California number five
Repeating the idea of California, possibly symbolizing aspiration or a goal.
California I`m gonna play in your bar
Expressing the desire to perform music in California.
One day when all this is over gonna bring my guitars
A future plan to bring music back to California after current difficulties.
Heroes and villains, standup comedians anywhere you look
Reiterating the observation of diverse personalities in society.
Now suddenly we`re on the same page in this book
Continued feeling of shared experiences among people.
Doctors and lawyers factory employers sharing the same fear
Similar anxieties across different professions.
Now the numbers are getting ugly everywhere
Continued mention of negative trends or situations.
California now this one`s for you
Dedicating something to California, possibly indicating gratitude or aspiration.
I will see at the end of this tunnel
Anticipating reaching the end of a difficult period or situation.
We`re gonna pull this through
Expressing determination to overcome the current challenges.
