Kalifornia Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Kashmir
    _____________________
   / Kashmir            /  I think this song is about the Americanization of the
  / Kalifornia         /  world, and how we're consumed by it's ideals. We've
 / No Balance Palace  /  always been aware of that it was sneaking up on us, but
/____________________/  eventually it's not something society is able to resist.

 LYRICS
**********
a.  kalifornia, have you gone wild?
    i'm sifting through your dark miles
    reaching out for you
    in the headlight's glare
    but you're way too devious
    to be aware.
        b.  restless, restless
            windswept road
            take me someplace
            unfold.
a.  kalifornia, in a bleak road song
    old nick warned me
    against the storm
    but i'm your slipstream
    you're my trail
    drive wild with me
    full sails.
        b.  restless, restless
            windswept road
            take me someplace
            unfold.
               C.  sometime
                   get there sometime.
