Once upon a time in Hollywood
When Carol called my name
I stood up, the room exploded, and I
Knew that’s it, I'll never be the same
Once upon a time in Hollywood
When Carol called my name
I stood up, the room exploded, and I
Knew that’s it, I'll never be the same
That's when the doors swung open
And the voice said, "We're glad you came"
Now I've spent thousands on you, darling
Oh, the hotels and the jets and I'd pay it all again
To have your golden body back in my bed
But I don't miss the poison arrows aimed directly at my head
[Pre-Chorus]
Goodbye to all the bottles, all the models
Back to the clouds in the skies in a whole new way
[Chorus]
Don't want that California love
Don't want that California love
Don't want that California love
[Verse 2]
Oh, once upon a time the Canyon store
Was where my world began
All that mystery and beauty gleaned from desert flowers and gifted children
But it got hard to grow up with your cool hand around my neck
Now in my hometown, sunbathing
My girlfriends and my baby
But every time I smell tequila
God, it goes up in my mind again
[Pre-Chorus]
Goodbye to all the bottles, all the models
Back to the kids in the lines for the new Supreme
[Chorus]
Don't want that California love
Don't want that California love
Don't want that California love
Don't want that California love
Don't want that California love
[Outro]
(Hmm) It's just a dream
(Hmm) It's just a dream
(Hmm) Said it's just a dream
(Hmm) I wanna wake up, I wanna wake up
Kwake kwenzeka ngesikhathi eHollywood
Lapho uCarol ebiza igama lami
Ngasukuma, igumbi laqhuma, nami
Wayazi ukuthi, angisoze ngalingana
Yilapho iminyango igcwele ivulekile
Izwi lathi, "Siyajabula ukuthi ufike"
Manje ngichithe izinkulungwane kuwe, sithandwa
Oh, amahhotela namajezi futhi bengingaphinde ngiyikhokhile
Ukuba nomzimba wakho wegolide ubuyela embhedeni wami
Kepha angiphuthelwa imicibisholo enobuthi ihlose ngqo ekhanda lami
[Pre-chorus]
Kuhle kuwo wonke amabhodlela, wonke amamodeli
Buyela emafwini esibhakabhakeni ngendlela entsha
[Chorus]
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
[Ivesi 2]
O, kanye ngesikhathi isitolo saseCanyon
Kwakukhona lapho umhlaba wami waqala khona
Yonke le mfihlakalo nobuhle obuthoswe ezimbali eziwugwadule kanye nezingane ezinesiphiwo
Kepha kunzima ukukhula ngesandla sakho esipholile entanyeni yami
Manje edolobheni lakithi, elanga
Izintombi zami nengane yami
Kepha ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho ngiphunga i-tequila
UNkulunkulu, ukhuphuka emqondweni wami futhi
[Pre-chorus]
Kuhle kuwo wonke amabhodlela, wonke amamodeli
Buyela ezinganeni ezingxenyeni ze-SPURET New
[Chorus]
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
Ungafuni ukuthi uthando lweCalifornia
[Ofsto]
(Hmm) Kumane nje kuyiphupho
(Hmm) Kumane nje kuyiphupho
(Hmm) uthe kumane nje kuyiphupho
(Hmm) Ngifuna ukuvuka, ngifuna ukuvuka
