Like a slow, ancient creature
Kicking tired, dreaming feet
The fault emerges, sniffs the air,
And rises from the deep.
And the earthquake that follows after
Pushes California against the shore
And it splits apart at the seams
And now we're on the ocean floor.
The day the fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks.
I lose my family in the quake
And the rest in the sinking
I break my heart in the quake
Yeah, I break it in the thinking
Now California is an island
Floating on the waves
A thousand years, and it's a legend
An adventure to be braved.
The day the fault breaks the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
The fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
The fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
The fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
The fault breaks, the fault breaks
The day the fault breaks
California
California
California
California
California
California
The natives will dream of solace
They'll feel the absence like a brace
And though they won't recall the breaking
They will always feel the quake.
And I will always feel the quake
And you will all feel the quake.
You will all feel the quake, oh yeah, alright.
But what's freaky is the rest of what happens after the earthquake.
