Miss California what did I do wrongIt seems I've loved youFor just a little too longYou've gone and you've left meFor some preacher's wayNow you act like you never knew meAnd you can't hear a word I sayMiss California did I get in your wayDid the neighbors warn youWhat would happen some dayThat a love like mineWas never good anywayThey said think about your reputationBefore you get carried awayDon't you know what's good for me can be good for youDon't you know what's good for me can be good for youDon't you know what's good for youCan be good for me tooDon't you know what's good for me can be good for youMiss California was I a little too proudI'm standing in the streets nowAnd I'm screaming out loudYou try to shove me in the closetWith your skulls and your bonesI can be who I am you seeIf I want to do it all aloneYour sweet seduction led me far from homeYour self-destruction gives me sticks and stonesYour propositions make me feel so coldWhen the hand that's trying to keep me downIs the one that I'm trying to holdI know the hand that's trying to force me backIs the one that won't let me goMiss CaliforniaYeah yeah yeah
