California's Burning

California's burning, burning, burning to the ground
 And my head is turning, turning, turning round and round
 Alie's stomach's churning, churning, like a storm today
 And your mother's crying, crying, closing up the safe
 And I'm here, wondering where the sun has gone
 Driving through a Midwest storm
 Asking why there's no one home
 Encinitas likes to miss me, like nobody's child
 And my eyes like rainy Tuesdays, like to watch you smile
 And I'm here, wondering where the sun has gone
 Driving through a Midwest storm
 Asking why there's no one home
