Song lyrics
Psychic spies from China 
Try to steal your mind's elation 
Little girls from Sweden 
Dream of silver screen quotations 
And if you want these kind of dreams 
It's Californication 

It's the edge of the world 
And all of western civilization 
The sun may rise in the East 
At least it settles in the final location 
It's understood that Hollywood 
sells Californication 

Pay your surgeon very well 
To break the spell of aging 
Celebrity skin is this your chin 
Or is that war your waging 

[Chorus:] 
First born unicorn 
Hard core soft porn 
Dream of Californication 
Dream of Californication 

Marry me girl be my fairy to the world 
Be my very own constellation 
A teenage bride with a baby inside 
Getting high on information 
And buy me a star on the boulevard 
It's Californication 

Space may be the final frontier 
But it's made in a Hollywood basement 
Cobain can you hear the spheres 
Singing songs off station to station 
And Alderaan's not far away 
It's Californication 

Born and raised by those who praise 
Control of population everybody's been there 
and 
I don't mean on vacation 

[Chorus] 

Destruction leads to a very rough road 
But it also breeds creation 
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar 
They're just another good vibration 
And tidal waves couldn't save the world 
From Californication 

Pay your surgeon very well 
To break the spell of aging 
Sicker than the rest 
There is no test 
But this is what you're craving 

[Chorus]

I LOVE this song, about how the Californian way (LA especially it seems - "buy me a star on the Boulevard, its Californication") seems to be taking over the world! All those mordern topics such as plastice surgery come into it too ("pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging")
Basically I love it even without its meanings!

This is one of only two perfect songs ever (along with "Going Away to College").

It's supposed to be Alderaan, not Alderon, the planet that Princess Leia from Star Wars calls home. It was blown up by the Death Star in Episode IV.

"Space may be the final frontier but it's made in a hollywood basement"...Do they really believe we never went to the moon?...and to any dumbasses out there that don't think we did because in pictures the flag was waving...there were wires in the flag so shut up before you make an ass out of yourself...other than that a good ass song.

they are not referring to the lunar landing, but too movies like star trek, and star wars

"Cobain can you hear the spheres singing songs off station to station and Alderon's not far away, itís Californication"

cobain is ofcourse a refrence to kurt cobain, and "hear spheres singing" has been speculated to stand for the foo fighters( dave grohl was a member of nirvana, and formed to foo fighters, and the word foo fighters is a refrence to ufos in the airforce, and ufos sometimes look like spheres, and station to station is a refrence to davis bowie and alderon (alderaan) is a planet from starwars.

o yea about alderaan, in Star Wars episode 4, Han Solo says Alderaan is not that far away when in fact, it was blown up by the deathstar. it means people that come to hollywood hoping to find something but when they get there, wut they were looking for is gone
