[10 seconds instrumental]

[Chorus: Male singing (Ice Cube)]
Living just another daaaaaay!
AK gun plaaaaay. - L.A. to the Baaaaaaay!
Living life in Californiaaaa!
Doouuuuuuugh! - We get that doouuuuuuugh!
Ooohhhhh! - We got to get moooooore!
Living just another daaaaaay! (just another day!)
AK gun plaaaaay. (AK gun play) - L.A. to the Baaaaaaay! (L.A. to the Bay!)
Living life in "Killafornia"!

[Ice Cube:]
If Jay-Z - can rap about - the NYC
Why can't I talk about - the shit I see?
Without Alicia Keys, without going R'n'B
This is ain't Motown; this is R-A-P, nigga!

[Bridge: Male singing (Ice Cube)]
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood! (yeah!)
Niggas can't stay if his name ain't there!
All the way from the Bay to the Inglewood (what?)
This is how it is when you're living in California!

[Ice Cube:]
California swagger. - F*ck record sales! (F*ck record sales!)
Industry outlaw like Josie Wales! (uh, yeah!)
California off the corner, I'm a warn ya
I'm the only WestCoast king! - Edi Amin! (yeah!)
Get you in the ring, I'm as shady as Don King! (hahah!)
I'm takin' all the money - befo' the bell ring! (ding!)
Before I grab the mic - the fat bitch sing! (sing!)
It's already over! - Supernova!
I'm Kobe! - You the nigga - I'm hoopin' over!
Know me! (yess!) - Big homie! - The one and only! (uh-huh!)
Ice Cube don't get airplay!
Cause I'm from L.A. and rep where I stay!

[Bridge]

[Jayo Felony:]
Yeah! - See it's just another day in my neighborhood!
First thing off in the morning and I'm looking for that good! (yeah!)
Stickin' to my fingertips and I'm sittin' on the hill
An' I'm overlooking the city, man this shit is for real! (real!)
Plenty 'gnac in my cup and the 'Llac all fizzy bruff.
It'll be a long night, that's what we got these bitches for! (Jayo!)
Yuh, bounce like it's a' earthquake! - Nitty shake!
Let's see how much noise it make the city makes! (BRR!)
You see it's just another day in my neighborhood (in my neighborhood!)
And the police ain't f*cking with me; knock on wood! (knock on wood!)
For my shoes, cause she just blew my socks so good!
Double shot never knew I'd see my Glock so good! (pow!)
I rock like? when they hit!
And they just can't do it, but they all wanna spit!
Put my Padre head on, but see I tried to warn him!
F*ck around! - Boy you know it goes down in Califonia!

[Chorus]

[Car bounces on hydraulics for 12 seconds]

[W.C.:]
Ba-block, ba-block! - Deep in the slums!
Here they come-come with the new Chucks on.
Click-click! - Ba-block, ba-block! green in my lungs!
Straight from Killa Cali got the one one one!
With a tall stack in all black with that
Louis trimmin' on our golf cap - known to make 'em all fall back.
It's that - Mister-F*ck-Everybody-I-Can't-Stand
And bust random! - C-Walkin' on another anthem,
Tryin to teach these new rappers some manners.
Chasin niggaz out of the mic booth with a camera
Back at it loc it's Da Lench Mob and I'm more?
Than a can of blow, bust ya head open like canteloupe!
You niggaz is pussy; pretend to be, we run the vicinity
Walk in the "Circle" and lose your virginity!
Put these khakis on and get out them speedos,
And bow down, cause without us, there wouldn't be no ("California! ")

[Chorus]
[Beat fades out]
