Didn't think before deciding what to do

Ooh, that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies

Rang true, sure rang true ...

Seems it never rains in southern California
好象南加州从来不下雨
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before

It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya?
南加州从不下雨 可是乖乖 他们没有警告过你
It pours, man, it pours
我看 下的是倾盆大雨

I'm out of work, I'm out of my head
我没有工作 茫然失措
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread
我一贫如洗 找不到自己
I'm underloved, I'm underfed, I wanna go home

It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya?

Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it?
你回去的时候 能不能告诉家里的人 我差一点就成功了
Had offers but didn't know which one to take

Please don't tell them how you found me

Don't tell 'em how you found me

Give me a break, give me a break
