lyrics

Welcome to my California Christmas
Christmas lights on all the fake palm trees
The only snow that falls
Is the fake stuff at the mall
Bathing suits in 85 degrees

Welcome to my California Christmas
The skies are blue, the sun is warm and bright
Santa Clause makes the drive
Stuck in traffic on the 5
It’s a California Christmas Eve

Cho:
Grab a Christmas Tree
I’ll meet you down the beach
Plant your mistletoes in the sand right next to me

Cause that pacific breeze
Gonna set you free
I’ll be wishing you a
California, California

V2
Welcome to my California Christmas
The avocado groves and graffiti kings
The gremmies fight for waves
As the sunset melts away
garage rock evenings filled with broken strings

Cho:
Jingle all the way
From out in east LA
Down the coast in your
Camero Christmas sleigh

So Ring the Christmas bell
Down at the hotel del
I’ll be wishing you a
California, California Christmas

Put up a tree at your favorite beach
With a smoothie
Throw your board in the car
In case there’s a Christmas swell
They’ll be blue skies and sunshine and seagulls and maybe jacuzzis
strike up the band, toes in the sand, ringing the Christmas bells

BGVs:
Santa hat and shades are so passé (cliche)
What a Californian thing to say

dia de Los Reyes
To the Pasadena rose parade
The best of west coast seasonal cliches
(Nutcracker ballets)

Throw your Christmas tree
On your suv
Plant your mistletoes in sand down at the beach

Hang your Christmas lights
Make the season bright
I’ll be wishing you a
California, California
