Mama could you tell me what it takes to be a man?
How many followers do you need on Instagram?
I just wanna be famous
I'll do anything I can
I love you baby I'm your hurdy gurdy man

Pack up your bags we're headed for the west coast
Where the streets have all been paved in gold
Where the weather is forever warmer
Whoo let's go to California

Here come another actor living on the east side of town
He's a really big deal
He'll tell you all about it now
Another pioneer who came here and claimed the land for himself
Well you must be a mailman
You know these streets so fucking well

Pack up your bags we're headed for the west coast
Where the streets have all been paved in gold
Where the weather is forever warmer
Whoo let's go to California

Hey did you hear the boys in the band put down their guitars?
Yeah they're making more working at the organic juice bar
You know the place they opened up down the road
Used to be a record store
It used to be a record store

Pack up your bags we're headed for the west coast
Where the streets have all been paved in gold
Where the weather is forever warmer
Whoo let's go to California

Pack up your bags we're headed for the west coast
Where the streets have all been paved in gold
Where the weather is forever warmer
Whoo they call it California
