California Gurls
Alex Goot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where the grass is really greener
Warm, wet and wild
There must be something in the water
Sippin' gin and juice
Layin' underneath the palm trees (undone)
The boys break their necks
Try'na creep a little sneak peek (at us)
But nothing comes close to the Golden Coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
California girls we're unforgettable
Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top
Sun kissed skin so hot
We'll melt your popsicle
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
California girls we're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
West Coast represent, now put your hands up
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Sex on the beach
We don't mind sand in our Stilettos
We freak in my jeep
Snoop Doggy Dogg on the stereo
You could travel the world
But nothing comes close to the Golden Coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
California girls we're unforgettable
Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top
Sun kissed skin so hot
We'll melt your posicle
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
California girls we're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
West Coast represent, now put your hands up
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
California girls, california gurls
The song "California Gurls" was released by American singer Alex Goot in 2011 as a cover of the original song by Katy Perry. The lyrics describe a group of young, confident and sexy California girls and the fun they have under the sun. The opening lines describe a land of dream-like qualities, where the grass really is greener, and everything is warm, wet, and wild. The suggestion is that there is something magical in the water of California that gives it a unique and irresistible atmosphere.
Throughout the song, there are multiple references to the legendary beach lifestyle of California. The girls are sipping gin and juice, lying under palm trees, tumbling around in Daisy Duke shorts, and reveling in the West Coast's sexiness. However, the song also speaks to the idea that California girls are strong and fierce, with lyrics describing them as "fine, fresh, and fierce" and having "it" on lock. The West Coast is represented, and the listener is encouraged to put their hands up and join in.
Overall, the lyrics suggest that California girls are a breed apart, and their carefree, fun-loving attitude is what makes California such a special place to be. These California girls are desirable, unforgettable, and unique in their own way, and they're not afraid to show it.

How the hell can people have voices like this beats me but this is amazing. Was completely shocked with how good it was!!
@JaxTheReaper21
Wow, it may be Katty Parry's song, but damn, you effin owned it man! That is some seriously awesome talent you have there. If you made it big, I'd certainly buy your albums.
@gsaldana22
This is probably my favorite cover of Alex's...well, top 5. When I got it on iTunes, i didn't realize it was 4 years old!! He should do an updated one, maybe a duet with Luke, or Julia, or Chrissy, or... wait...Megan Nicole! Yes! That would be amazing. Maybe a mash-up of this and the Beach Boys' "California Girls?" Wow... one can only dream, though.
