Santa Monica
I have never been there, not to Santa Monica
Only from my armchair, it's a city I can't claim
But I truly love that name, oh Santa Monica's not my hometown
Santa Monica
I do know of a pier there
It's called Santa Monica
Maybe they make a pier there
I just thought that I would warn ya
I wasn't raised in California
Oh, Santa Monica's not
My hometown
To all you Santa Monicans, I send a warm salute
I could never dwell there
Or my message would be new
Santa Monica
Many make their home there
It's called Santa Monica
But I would have to roam there
Well, it must get lots of sun
And it sure rolls off of my tongue
No, Santa Monica's not my hometown
No, Santa Monica's not my hometown
