Song
Californication By Red Hot Chili Peppers
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
Meaning
Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
These 2 lines are talking about stealing peoples elation "great happiness".
Imagine a girl from China watching tv she really isn't getting happiness from watching tv,but the next day she will be able to talk with her friends about the show making her feel happy.
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
Like above, but the little girl is learning that the ideal life is one of an actor.
And if you want these kind of dreams
It's Californication
Into to the rest of the song
It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
Referencing to where the song is taking place, its talking about how everyone lives to be noticed now
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
The final location is Hollywood the first is where civilization started "greece or east" Also how the sunset is doing down and theres the cowboy and such.
It's understood that Hollywood
sells Californication
Direct reference to Hollywood
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
People hate aging, but most cant afford it so the lines are referencing to all the plastic surgeries celebrities get because of all the money they have
