[Verse 1]

Woke up this morning with the strangest feeling

I had a nightmare, but I wasn't dreaming

I ran outside to see it's not 2003

Turned on the radio, it's so confusing

Rappers were singing and Rockers DJ'ing

There's no guitars on the songs that they're playing

I called my shrink to see if I was healthy

I called my mom and she was taking selfies



[Chorus]

Grew up on MTV when they had Eazy-E

In California, yeah, they still knew how to throw a party

When It was Gin & Juice and we had Dre and Snoop

In California, yeah, they still knew how to throw a party

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce dream



[Verse 2]

Now all the punk rockers are over 40

They're coaching little league and reading stories

When did the neighborhood ever sound so good?

Looked on the corner and there's no more junkies

More girls and more grunge and bottles and more fun

Needles and squatters pissed off at their fathers

I can't believe it, man, it's all so boring

Went down to Gilman, yeah, the cops were snoring



[Chorus]

Grew up on MTV when they had Eazy-E

In California, yeah, they still knew how to throw a party

When It was Gin & Juice and we had Dre and Snoop

In California, yeah, they still knew how to throw a party

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce dream



Grew up on MTV when they had Eazy-E

In California, yeah, they still knew how to throw a party

When It was Gin & Juice and we had Dre and Snoop

In California, yeah, they still knew how to throw a party



[Outro]

Na na na na na na, na na na na na na

Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea

We still know how to throw a party

Na na na na na na, na na na na na na

Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea

We still know how to throw a party

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce

Oh oh, last night I had a 40 ounce dream
