I was making Japanese
And she's watching DVDs 
In Oakland, in Oakland 
Now I'm driving up the 5
And she waits till I arrive 
In Oakland, in Oakland

Everything, that I wanted 
Only gotta drive for the moment 
If you tell me "turn around," then I'm on it 
For the moment, but you know me 
You know how I get when I'm lonely 
I think about you and the moments 
But everything you do is so Oakland, so Oakland 

Foot on the gas 
I'm just trying to pass 
All the red lights 
And the stop signs 
I'm ready to go 
Before I get to The Bay 
Babe, that's a problem 
Because I'm way too scared to call 
And you might get me to stay, no 

All the girlfriends saying "here we go again" 
Rich kid but he act like a gentleman 
Last one didn't end like it should've been 
Two dates and he still wanna get it in 
And you're saying it's because of the Internet 
Try once and it's on to the next chick 
X-O the O face on your exes right? 
And we can do the same thing if you wanna have better 
When your thoughts can't breathe and you thinking asthmatic 
And you wanna be a mom and I wasn't mad at her 
I was thinking 'bout me, I'd be really bad at it 
Cause I'm thinking 'bout me, weeks in Dubai 
Fourth of July, house in Kauai, yeah we can try 
So let's try 

And now that's it's over, 
I'll never be sober 
I couldn't believe, but now I'm so high 
And now that's it's over, 
I'll never be sober 
I couldn't believe, but now I'm so high 
Now I'm so high 
Now I'm so high 
Now I'm so high 

I took off my nine to five 
But you still don't have the time to kiss me, just hit me And if I left you all alone, would you still pick up the phone 
It's iffy, you miss me 
I got furniture to move, and we'll both be thirty soon 
In Oakland, in Oakland 
The only one I know is you, so the [bad word] I'm supposed to do? 
In Oakland, in Oakland
