Woke up this morning with the strangest feeling
I had a nightmare but I wasn’t dreaming
I ran outside to see, it’s not 2003
Turned on the radio, it’s so confusing
Rappers were singing and rockers DJing
There’s no guitar on the songs they’re playing
I called my shrink to see if I was healthy
I called my mom and she was taking selfies
Grew up on MTV
When they had Eazy-E
In California yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
When it was gin and juice
And we had Dre and Snoop
In California yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz.
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz. dream
Now all the punk rockers are over 40
They’re coaching little league and reading stories
When did the neighbourhood ever sound so good
Looked on the corner and there’s no more junkies
More girls and more grunge and bottles and more fun
Needles and squatters pissed off at their fathers
I can’t believe it man, it’s all so boring
Went down to Gilman, ya the cops were snoring
Grew up on MTV
When they had Eazy-E
In California yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
When it was gin and juice
And we had Dre and Snoop
In California yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz.
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz. dream
Grew up on MTV
When they had Eazy-E
In California yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
When it was gin and juice
And we had Dre and Snoop
In California yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
Na na na na na na, Na na na na na na,
Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
Na na na na na na, Na na na na na na,
Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh, they still knew how to throw a party
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz.
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz.
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz.
O oh oh last night I had a 40 oz. dream
