Fu Manchu - California Crossing Lyrics






Twenty years or more
We had a plan
To build the finest street ride
In the whole damn land
Some dip down for keys
Some cheater slicks
Metal bars and a holley
Just for kicks

Happenin' since the dawn of time
Big block will shut you down, off the line
In California... there is no stopping
In California... the California Crossing

We didn't know
Couldn't foresee
Cold blooded snake
Building up heat

Tries to fly but it's no use
Cobra's got the bird, and it's loose
In California... there is no stopping
In California... the California Crossing

Inbetween runs
Through oil and smoke
Thought to myself
Did we ever choke?

Happenin' since the dawn of time
Big block will shut you down, off the line
Tries to fly but it's no use, it's no use!
There is no stopping
California... the California crossing
In California... there is no stopping
In California... the California crossing

  2. J.... M....

    Best Fu Manchu album.

  3. S.... ....

    I see the Fu as crossing pretty much most genre barriers in rock, but Scott Hill is my pick for number one punk vocalist. More machismo in one finger than *everybody* else.

  4. T.... B....

    This album is only really worth listening to for Mongoose, but boi is it worth it...

  5. k.... m....

    california crossing - 15:01

  25. t.... f....

    Album of the century wheels down

  26. a.... r....

    Me encanta esta banda. Mi sueño es formar un grupo así pesado y cool

    a.... r....

    Era mi sueño también, pero nunca encontré nadie que entendía el rollo...

  27. T.... ....

    For me this record is their low point in their career. It's famous for it's absence of their heavy fuzz sound and that's the main problem for me. This record could be part of a cheesy teenager party movie like "American Pie" next to Pop-Punk like Blink 182 etc. "California Crossing" got a clean radio friendly Hardrock sound. No dirty Stoner Rock. If you take "In Search Of..." and compare it to "California Crossing" you know what I mean... That one got that greedy dirty fuzz sound and wah wah solos. The production of their 90s records sounded also way rawer which made them even dirtier. "California Crossing" sounds too clean and mainstream appealing for me.

    T.... ....

    That's fair. It's not stoner music. This doesn't sound any better when you're high. But I think their songwriting is best on this album. And it's how I got into the band.

    T.... ....

    Just because it's not stoner doesn't have to mean it's not good. I enjoy many of the songs on this album even though i think In Serch Of... is their best one by far.

    T.... ....

    WELL, THAT'S LIKE YOUR OPINION MAN.........

    T.... ....

    You know there's a california crossing demo that's fuzzy, right? It's the better album IMO. It's available on amazon music for free with prime right now.

    T.... ....

    Но звучит же?

  28. G.... M....

    Mongoose is bangin

    G.... M....

    No doubt although the "apocalypse" for me was Ape Hangers. Of course, all of the album is one my top 2 from Fu.

  29. o.... C....

    That was the last car my dad owned. Red 67, identical ♥️ (it's a truck, I know lol)

    o.... C....

    But is it a truck? It's in the ambiguity that greatness resides.

    o.... C....

    @Stephen Wisner Definitely not a truck. Based on a station wagon chassis.

    o.... C....

    It's not a Truck, It's not a Car, this I know because it;s an El Camino. Cherrrrrrry!

  30. b.... ....

    This is their fucking best ever. And I LOVE everything these guys do, specially the two previous ones.

    b.... ....

    @Douglas E. Heeren Gonna listen to that bad boy right now then!

  31. m.... ....

    THE MONGOOSE FLIES

    m.... ....

    marchatesyou1 ON BY

    m.... ....

    Should someone tell them that the mongoose is a small furry creature, not actually capable of flight? Nah, I guess it doesn't matter.

  32. R.... ....

    I hang on.

  33. R.... ....

    Loved this album, skating to this back in like 2002.

  34. M.... ....

    me encanta esta banda che

    M.... ....

    Aguante fu manchu vieja, no me importa nada

    M.... ....

    Y vos, cuántas copas tenés?

  35. P.... S....

    Probably their most Underrated album. wiz kid, thinking out loud, seperate kingdom. A lot of great songs and riffs.

  36. F.... L....

    thanks a lot man!!

  37. r.... Y....

    Not their best album, but surely the best cover!

    r.... Y....

    In Search of...

    r.... Y....

    No one rides for free was my favorite.

    r.... Y....

    the action is go!

    r.... Y....

    Godzilla/Eatin’ Dust (At the Dojo version) 👌

    r.... Y....

    California Crossing was their best .
