CaliforM.I.A

My mom's a bitch

An alcoholic

A melancholic

That we keep afloat

It's time to flip the switch

When the problem's chronic

Not being hyperbolic

But it's time to ghost

And when the sun shines down upon me

I'll know I'm righteous, babe

In this time of crisis, babe

And when the sun shines down over Cali

Our future it's priceless, babe

The past's a virus, babe

'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A

M.I.A

'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A

It beats bein' broke

In this day and ages

What the use of wages

If you can't afford to smoke

It's not a trope

I'll be an actress

'Cause I've had practice

Selling hope

And when the sun shines down upon us

We'll know we're righteous, babe

We survived the crisis, babe

And when the sun shines down over Cali

Won't need a license

'Cause love will drive us

Oh, We're CaliforM.I.A

We're missing in action

Addition by subtraction

We're CaliforM.I.A

Dearest Mom

It's been real - real bad

I'd say you did your best but I'm not a liar

Oh, it's L-I-E-R, babe

We get it, Ethan, you're a good speller

I'm taking Hannah, as far away as we can get

I'd give you an address but I don't want to

Don't write, don't call, don't ask

Sincerely, Lex

P.S. Get yourself a new trailer

'Cause this one is

Broke as shit

'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A

M.I.A

M.I.A

'Cause we're CaliforM.I.A
