No Picture Kitana Average	#1 by Kitana at Mar 22, 2006 at 10:15 PM EST
	your right runar

No Picture Guide Professional	#2 by Guide Manf at Aug 22, 2006 at 6:07 PM EST
	any song that says 'lemon trees on mercury' is cool. but maybe that's just me... i've got a thing for citrus.

No Picture Alisha Wanna Be	#3 by Alisha A. at Dec 13, 2006 at 10:46 PM EST
	i don't think his lyrics are random. not sure what he means all the time, but I think some real thought went into the lyrics

No Picture Daniel Average	#4 by Daniel Gordon at Feb 20, 2007 at 5:06 PM EST
	therse not much random in the song Californication... or in Under the bridge... or in Around the world... or in I could die for you... I could go on but I dont think anyone erally cares, including me

No Picture Commander Cool Professional	#5 by Commander Cool at Feb 25, 2007 at 5:26 PM EST
	I totally agree with FreeofInsanity, Anthony Keidis writes words to fit in with the music, sings to make music rather than tell a story. But anyone who writes songs knows that you have to have some theme in mind or you cant even write. I reckon he is just writing about trippin, hallucinating maybe. Many many references to drugs in the song if you read them with it in mind. We don't stop rock around the clock (E) You always took me with a smile When I was down

No Picture Katie Average	#6 by Katie Brown at Mar 24, 2007 at 12:12 AM EST
