California Gold



ONE

TAMMI IS WIGGING OUT

IT’S 1849 AGAIN

TAMMI IS FULL OF DOUBT

ALL SHE REALLY NEEDS IS A FRIEND

SHE’S GOT NO PROSPECTS

BUT SHE’S A PROSPECTOR

TAMMI DOESN’T EXPECT

THAT THEY’LL EVER SUSPECT HER

SHE’S A PLATINUM GLOW

WHEN HER FRIENDS ARE BESIDE HER

TAMMI’S PROUD TO BE

A REAL 49ER!

CH.

SHE’S TURNING CALIFORNIA GOLD INTO MUD…4

TWO

TAMMI IS A PIONEER

SHE’S OUT PANNING GOLD AGAIN

TAMMI’S GOT A 1000 BUCKS

SHE’S AT THE FOREFRONT OF A TREND

BUT ALL HER FRIENDS HAVE RUN AWAY

OR THEY’RE ON THE NOD

OR THEY’RE DOWN ON THEIR KNEES

PRAYING TO THEIR GOD

THAT TAMMI WILL GO AWAY

AND LEAVE THEM ALONE

SHE’S LIKE A DIRTY OLD DOG

SCRATCHING FOR A BONE

CH.

SHE’S AN ALCHEMIST

OR THEREABOUT

SHE PULLS METHAMPHETAMINE

FROM A WATERSPOUT

HER FRIENDS ALL LOVE HER

OR SO SHE THINKS

BUT THEY’RE NOT THIRSTY ANYMORE

THEY DON’T WANT A DRINK

OF HER CALIFORNIA GOLD

THAT’S TURNED INTO MUD

THEIR TEETH HAVE ALL GONE BAD

THEIR EYES ARE FULL OF BLOOD

BUT THEY CAN’T BLAME TAMMI

THAT WOULD BE CLICHÉ

SO THEY PACKED UP THEIR SHIT

AND JUST RAN AWAY…

NOW SHE’S CRIED ALL NIGHT

BUT HER TEARS ARE FUTILE

AND THE PRICE OF CALIFORNIA GOLD’S

GONE UP IN UTAH…
