Once upon a time I was a lost soul,
even then I didn't know what I was told,
I just wanted to sing into that microphone,
and even though you've never heard of me,
that's because you've never follwed me,
into the lightning zone,
Take me back to a place,
Where the sun shines,
I'm gonna go back to SoCal,
That's where I want to be
Somebody take me back to SoCal,
That's where I want to be
I just want to be on that beach,
with the sand, beneath my knees,
I just want to ride that board all day long,
until I hear the dinner bell song,
Take me back to a place,
Where the sun shines,
I'm gonna go back to SoCal,
That's where I want to be,
Somebody take me back to SoCal,
That's where I want to be,
Don't you know it's about transformations?
I mean how are you to grow?
Change something about yourself,
So others can take note,
