All the gold in Californ-ia is in a bank in the middle
Of Beverly Hills in somebody else's name
So if you're dreaming about Californ-ia
It don't matter at all where you played before
California's a brand new game
Trying to be a he-ro winding up a zero
Can scar a man forever right down to his soul
Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright
Cause everything that glitters is not gold
Repeat #1,3,1
