Dani California – Red Hot Chili Peppers

May 23rd, 2006 by Ashley

非常 RHCP 風的一首歌,副歌開頭那句 California rest in peace 吸引我的注意。


Getting born in the state of Mississippi
Papa was a copper
And mama was a hippie
In Alabama she would swing a hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama
She never knew that there was
Anything more than poor
What in the world does your
Company take me for

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana
Robbin’ a bank in the state of Indiana
She’s a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her marry sayin’
Baby watcha gonna
Lookin down the barrel of a
Hot metal .45
Just another way to survive

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show me your teeth
She’s my priestess I’m your priest

She’s a lover, baby and a fighter
Shoulda seen it comin’ when
It got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California,
The day was gonna come
When I was gonna mourn ya
A little loaded she was
Stealing another breath
I love my baby to death

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show me your teeth
She’s my priestess I’m your priest

Who knew the other side of you
Who knew what others died to prove
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true to say say say

Push the fader, gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota
North Dakota man was a gunnin’
For the quota
Down in the badlands
She was saving the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show me your teeth
She’s my priestess I’m your priest
(2x)
