Black California
Crush the innocent mind
Girl I ought to warn you
My reputation's unkind
But you knew that anyway
Black California, black California
Change your lives at the speed of light
Show them fear and they'll show you the knife
Change your lives at the speed of light
Show them fear and they'll show you the knife

Don't drink the dirty black water
Poison feeds the mouth of disorder
Who plays the devil
Who rides the devil
Obey the law, obey the disorder
Black California
Crush the innocent mind
Who rides the devil
Who plays the devil
Change your lives at the speed of light
Show them fear and they'll show you the knife
Change your lives at the speed of light
Show them fear and they'll show you the knife

Come on come on come on my children
come on come on come on now
Black California, black California
Change your lives at the speed of light
Show them fear and they'll show you the knife
Change your lives at the speed of light
Show them fear and they'll show you the knife
