"Spanish Tiles (BER-ABQ Version)" lyrics

"Spanish Tiles (BER-ABQ Version)"

Give me palm trees, surfing, shorts
And sandals, too
A bungalow, Spanish tiles
And an ocean view
When California goes under
We'll be there too
Hand in hand, a summer tan
My girl from Japan

Venice Beach never shocked you
Hollywood never got to you
The smog never stopped you
Beverly Hills never mocked you
There's nothing we can't do
And yet there's nothing to do
But dig trenches in the sand
And blame the government again

Give me palm trees, surfing, shorts
And sandals, too
A bungalow, Spanish tiles
And an ocean view
When California goes under
We'll be there too
Hand in hand, a summer tan
My girl from Japan
