CaliforM.I.A Lyrics by Team StarKid

Black Friday

2020

[LEX]
My mom's a bitch
An alcoholic
A melancholic
That we keep afloat
It's time to flip the switch
When the problem's chronic
Not being hyperbolic
But it's time to ghost

And when the sun shines down upon me
I'll know I'm righteous, babe
In this time of crisis, babe
And when the sun shines down over Cali
The future's priceless, babe
The past's a virus, babe

'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A
M.I.A

[LEX & ETHAN]
'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A

[ETHAN]
It beats bein' broke
In this day and ages
What the use of wages
If you can't afford a smoke?

[LEX]
It's not a trope
I'll be an actress
'Cause I've had practice
Selling hope

[LEX & ETHAN]
And when the sun shines down upon us
We'll know we're righteous, babe
We survived the crisis, babe
And when the sun shines down over Cali
We won't need a license
'Cause love will drive us

[LEX, ETHAN, & HANNAH]
Oh, we're CaliforM.I.A

[LEX & ETHAN]
We're missing in action
Addition by subtraction
We're CaliforM.I.A

[LEX (spoken)]
Dear Mom
It's been real - real bad
I'd say you did your best
But I'm not a liar

[ETHAN (spoken)]
Oh, it's L-I-E-R, babe

[LEX (spoken)]
We get it, Ethan, you're a good speller

I'm taking Hannah, as far away as we can get
I'd give you an address but I don't want to
Don't write, don't call, don't ask
Sincerely, Lex

P.S. Get yourself a new trailer
'Cause this one is

[LEX & ETHAN (spoken)]
Broke as shit!

[LEX & ETHAN]
'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A
M.I.A

[LEX]
M.I.A

[LEX & ETHAN]
'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A
