Verse 1

See I got a little bit of a problem

back where I come from,

feels like five people in my population

and no one ever leaves there

I'm gonna be the first one

coz my papa always told me they way it was,

and my mama think she knows me, I know she doesn't

(ah ah ah)

Chorus

But I got my headset on California

I'll fly away tomorrow, won't even warn ya

and I'll send a big postcard, just to piss you off

I got my head set on California here I come

Verse 2

See, I got what you would call an obsession

it feels like I think sane

the limits of a small town

frustrating my brain,

might leave some roots there,

but my head's on the next plane

coz my daddy always told me they way it was,

and my mama think she knows me, I know she doesn't

(ah ah ah)

(Repeat Chorus)

Here I come

Interlude

Bridge

Papa always told me they way it was,

and my mama think she knows me, I know she doesn't

(ah ah ah)

Chorus 2

But I got my head set on New York City

I'll fly away tomorrow, won't even miss me

and I'll get a big boyfriend, just to piss you off

(Repeat Chorus)

Here I come, here I come
