We got violence
In our schools
Yet they try to tell you
Don't break the rules

People praying
And they're saving
For the good times
And the bad times
We got violence
In our schools

The things that they say
The games that they play
Oh, the way people change
When it rains in LA
We drift and we break
As we're riding the wave
Oh, the way people change
When it rains in LA

We got science
We got fools
And you can find them
Both if you choose
(All of this with the global warming and the—)
In the news
(A lot of it's a hoax, it's a hoax)

Sunbathing
Misbehaving
Through the good times
And the bad times
Now you're praying
And you're saving
Keep praying

(People change) the things that they say
(People change) the games that they play
(Oh, the way) oh, the way people change
(When it rains) when it rains in LA
(People change) we drift and we break
(People change) as we're riding the wave
(Oh, the way) oh, the way people change
(When it rains) when it rains in LA

(People change) the things that they say
(Every day) the games that they play
(Oh, the way) oh, the way people change
When it rains in LA
We drift and we break
As we're riding the wave
Oh, the way people change
When it rains in LA

(People change
People change
When it rains
People change
People change
Oh the way
When it rains
People change
Oh the way
When it rains)

When the rain is falling
Calling you back home
And you just wanna give it up
Don't give it up
The rain will come and go
People change

People change
