California Gurls
Katy Perry Lyrics

Greetings loved ones
Hello, dear friends.

Let's take a journey
Let's go on an adventure together.

I know a place
I am aware of a location.

Where the grass is really greener
The grass is incredibly green in this area.

Warm, wet n' wild
It's hot, humid, and crazy over here.

There must be something in the water
There is likely something in the water that contributes to this amazing atmosphere.

Sippin' gin and juice
Drinking gin and juice to cool down and relax.

Laying underneath the palm trees
Relaxing and resting under the palm trees.

(Undone) The boys
The boys are way too curious.

Break their necks
They are straining their necks to get a peak at us.

Try'na to creep a little sneak peek
They are trying to sneak a glance at us without being seen.

(At us)
Attractive girls who they want to take a look at.

You could travel the world
You could explore many places throughout the world.

But nothing comes close
But nothing is as close or as good as this place.

To the golden coast
To the amazing coast of California.

Once you party with us
Once you hang out with us and have some fun.

You'll be falling in love
You'll begin to love the area and the people here.
