[Verse 1]
Deep inside of a parallel universe
It's getting harder and harder to tell what came first
Under water where thoughts can breathe easily
Far away you were made in a sea just like me
[Chorus]
Christ, I'm a sidewinder, I'm a California King
I swear it's everywhere, oh, it's everything
[Verse 2]
Staring straight up into the sky
Oh my my
A solar system that fits in your eye
Microcosm
You could die but you're never dead
Spider web
Take a look at the stars in your head
Felds of space kid
[Chorus]
Christ, I'm a sidewinder, I'm a California King
I swear it's everywhere, oh, it's everything
Christ, I'm a sidewinder, I'm a California King
I swear it's everywhere, oh, it's everything
[Verse 3]
Psychic changes are born in your heart
Entertain
A nervous breakthrough that makes us the same
Bless your heart, girl
Kill the pressure it's raining on
Salty cheeks
When you hear the beloved song
I am with you
[Chorus]
Christ, I'm a sidewinder, I'm a California King
I swear it's everywhere, oh, it's everything
Christ, I'm a sidewinder, I'm a California King
I swear it's everywhere, oh, it's everything
