Everclear Like A California King Lyrics

I see you have made yourself a brand new life
Such a cool blue star with a bright new shine
I see you wear your checkered past just like a shining suit of gold
I know you think you look so special

I am told you have found yourself a brand new time
Watch the world stand still as the years go by
I know you think you are new and different
But it makes no sense to me

There is nothing new about you
Just another self-made man
There is nothing new that i can see
Enjoy it while you can
I know you think you look so special

What makes you think you are so special?
What makes you think you are unique?
I see you smile and i get angry as
I watch you go colossal like a california king

(Spoken) All these Californians coming up here, changing everything,
they're just a bunch of carpetbaggers and I'd wish they'd all just go.
Go!

I heard you gave the world a brand new voice
Such a happy melody with with a new wave whine
I see you hide behind your own noise
I think I've heard enough

I will find you in the crowded room
I will knock you off your feet
I will burn you just like teenage love
I will eat you just like meat
I will break you into pieces hold you up for all the world to see
What makes you think you are better than me?

What makes you think you're better?
What makes you think you are complete?
What makes you think you are the only one immune to falling down?
Why can't you see?

I see you fall and i get happy
I will watch you burn like fire
I will watch you burn like a california king
I will watch you burn like a california king

Thanks for the Christmas card
I don't want to hear about your new job now
I don't want to hear about your new boyfriend
I don't want to hear about it all working out for you
No, I don't want to hear it now
I don't want to hear about your swinging new place
I don't want to hear how everyone thinks it's great
I just want to sit in our apartment and hate you
Yes, I will be hating you for Christmas
You can have the Christmas tree
Remember when we bought it at the store down the street?
Remember when I found that cheesy color wheel?
I don't want to think about the lights on your white skin
No, I don't want to think about it
I don't want to think about last year at your dad's
You said it was the best s__ that we both ever had
I don't want to think about my face in your soft hair
I will be hating you for Christmas
I must be losing my mind
There's gotta be a better way to deal with the pain
There's gotta be a better way to deal with the hate
Wish that I could find some way to make you go away
Wish that I could have a drink and make you fade
I wish that I could have myself a drink and make you fade
I wish that I could have a drink and make you go away
Yeah make you go away
Wish that I could make you go away
I will be hatng you for Christmas
Yeah I will be hating you for Christmas
Thanks for the Christmas card
