I'm Never Ready
I'm getting ready
To go back to Cali Cali
I'm getting ready
To go back to California
I'm getting ready
To go back to Cali, Daddy
I'm getting ready
To go back to California
They're waiting for ya
We've got responsibilities to get to
You know I wouldn't go if I had a choice
But I won't choose
I'll be taking your grey woven sweater
I'll be spraying it with your cologne
It'll keep me sane when I'm under the weather
It'll keep me company when I'm alone
Well, I'm getting ready
To go back to Cali Cali
I'm getting ready
To go back to California
I'm getting ready
To go back to Cali, Daddy
I'm getting ready
To go back to California
They're waiting for the
Moment my red heels touch that solid ground
Before my head goes up into the clouds
Before my health goes all the way down
I won't be taking off my necklace
I'll keep your picture on my wall
I'll do my best with my academics
I'll make sure to follow all of your rules
I'm going back to Cali, Daddy
You know I've never had to live without ya
I'm going back to Cali, Daddy
You know that I'm going to miss ya...
With love,
Toonami
