Surfin' the So-Cal Strip

SURFIN' the SO-CAL STRIP (Joi) [Verse] Moonlight burns on southern sand, where the black tide learns my name At the Cliffs I chase the foam like a ghost inside a flame The Wedge bites hard with a silver grin, and the breakers all lean in I ride that restless California night till the thunder lets me spin [Bridge] Hear the low surf howl at Doho, where the shadows kiss the sea [Chorus] Surf the black light, let the shadows roll, let the midnight sea explode From the Cliffs to San O, I’m a restless soul on a cursed white road Psychedelic waves and a gothabilly roar in the salty California glow When the moon sinks low, I still chase that ghost where the cold wind blows [Verse] At 22nd in Hermosa, the boardwalk shakes with neon sighs Trestles hums like a voodoo drum beneath the starlit sky San O drifts in a cigarette haze, where the whitecaps drift and moan I carve through the dusk on a haunted wave, but I never surf alone [Bridge] Got a dark tide preacher and a phantom sun guiding me home [Chorus] Surf the black light, let the shadows roll, let the midnight sea explode From the Cliffs to San O, I’m a restless soul on a cursed white road Psychedelic waves and a gothabilly roar in the salty California glow When the moon sinks low, I still chase that ghost where the cold wind blows [Outro] So I’ll fade with the swell and the bleeding dawn on the edge of the sky Southern California, dark and alive, where the dead waves never die
