Curse of the Contemporary

If you should be bored in California
 I'm sure I'm not the first to warn ya
 Don't read in too much to all the signs and turns
 Keep your wits about you with your mind freedom
 If you should be bored in California
 I'm sure I'm not the last to warn ya
 The natives scaled the mountains for the promise of the sea
 But deem the land unworthy of the evidently
 We salute the sun because
 When the day is done
 We can't believe what we've become
 Something else to pray upon
 And evidently
 It's just another vanity
 Another something to believe
 The curse of the contemporary
 We salute the sun because
 When the day is done
 We can't believe what we've become
 Something else to pray upon
 And evidently
 It's just another vanity
 Another something to believe
 The curse of the contemporary
