lyrics

CALIFORNIA IN FEBRUARY
Your sidewalks are towering
Like small-scale Mt. Everests
With what kind of shape they’re in who needs your bay trails?
With blue from your ocean
And gold found in every hill
The jewel for your commonwealth
Your beautiful campus
Your beautiful canvas
And after they hibernate
As pale as the weather that swept all the clouds away
In radiant sunlight
What could have been so intriguing
What could have been so dramatic
Turned out to be another waste of time
Your own tired magistrates
Your meaningless senators
Will now have to demonstrate their need for discrepancies
You’ve blown wide of everyone who’ll pay for security
In spite of your activists you prize your own atmosphere
Your gray skies have been replaced by green cloaks and daffodils
Euphoric enlightenment
Your tightrope is infinite
What could have been so intriguing
What could have been so dramatic
Turned out to be another waste of time

It's the Agony Aunts! (aka - The Corner Laughers!) Really, that's all you need to know. If you have not heard them before, start by listening to the album "Greater Miranda" - if it doesn't get you completely hooked on this amazing San Francisco area band, then nothing will Kat Smith
