Lyrics
I've got the California blues
I feel melancholic, possibly related to California.
When I am down, I always lose
During low times, I often experience defeat.
So don't put me in this restraining room
Don't confine me in a restrictive space because I'm lost.
Cause I don't know where to go
I lack direction and don't know where to turn.
Now tell me, are you happy?
Are you content with being exploited by others?
With how they like to exploit you too?
They exploit you too; are you in control of your life?
Are you in control now? No, cause you don't know where to go
No, you're not in control because you're lost.
Poor little girl, sad little world
Expressing empathy for a girl facing challenges in life.
Smile on her face, keeps us all safe.
Despite her difficulties, she maintains a reassuring smile.
Is she laughing when she's smiling?
Questioning if her laughter is genuine or a facade.
Or is that a face that she carries 'round?
Is her smiling face a mask she wears in difficult times?
To use when she hits a low
She uses this face when dealing with emotional lows.
Just shake it up, let it go.
Suggesting to shake off negative emotions and let them go.
How do you deal with their lies and blues?
How do you cope with deceit and sadness from others?
If you're feeling down you'll always lose.
If you're feeling down, you will always face defeat.
So don't put me in this restricted room
Don't confine me; I'm lost and uncertain where to go.
'Cause I don't know where to go
I lack direction and feel disoriented.
Poor little girl, sad little world
Reiterating empathy for the girl facing a tough world.
Smile on her face, keeps us all safe.
Her smile provides comfort and security to others.
Now tell me, are you happy?
Are you content with being exploited by others?
With how they like to exploit you too?
They exploit you too; are you in control of your life?
Are you in control now? No, cause you don't know where to go
No, you're not in control because you're lost.
Poor little girl, sad little world
Expressing empathy for a girl facing challenges in life.
Smile on her face, keeps us all safe.
Despite her difficulties, she maintains a reassuring smile.
