Lyrics of Blue Monkey – The Earthquake that Shook California

My ex was in a K-Town cult
and I’m the witch who said,
“I think you’re drinking their Kool-Aid.”
And everybody wants to move to New York
‘cause they think it’s gonna solve their every complaint
So, I told my best friend New York wouldn’t save him
And now we don’t talk anymore
I’ve lost a lot of friends to truth

And I predicted the earthquake that shook California in August
So, throwing a tantrum doesn’t scare me into lying to you
I talk to the stars and I go to the angels for counsel
And I’ve lost a lot of friends to the truth

The church always wants to talk about sins
unless they’re truly damning
I love the people in relationships
who think they can solve their problems by getting married
So, I told a few friends love wouldn’t save them
And now we don’t talk anymore
I’ve lost a lot of friends to the truth

And I predicted the earthquake that shook California in August
So, throwing a tantrum doesn’t scare me into lying to you
I talk to the stars and I go to the angels for counsel
And I’ve lost a lot of friends to the truth

I think the hardest part about it
is thinking they hate me now
Thinking they’re better off without me shaking their town
You can move from San Andreas
but you’ll find disaster somewhere else
I’m better off without you
and that’s all that matters now

I predicted the earthquake in August
So, throwing a tantrum doesn’t scare me into lying to you
I talk to the stars and the angels
And I’ve lost a lot of friends to the truth

And we’ve lost a lot of people to earthquakes
We’ve lost a lot of people to hurricanes
We’ve lost a lot of people to the thought that death is necessary

But death ain’t necessary the way the truth is
Death ain’t necessary the way the truth is
