Good Gracious Abbey Lyrics - Greetings From California - The Madden Brothers

Good gracious, Abbey, what happened to you? 

Emo eyelashes, that's how I knew ya 

Sorry for asking, but we were so close 

Our rebellious passion, guess it outgrew ya 

So now you're on your way to your new job in the city, 

You got a degree you say, cause there's bills to pay, of course. 

And you don't like rock and roll, are you serious? 

Too cool for the scene, are you serious? 

Well, new friends come and go, are you serious? 

Abbey, what happened? 

Wake up your napping 

When we were younger, our dreams were going 

To California, to see the ocean 

We saved our money, we quit our jobs 

When they said "you're crazy," we said "I'll show ya." 

So now you're on your way to your new job in the city, 

You got a degree you say, cause there's bills to pay, of course. 

And you don't like rock and roll, are you serious? 

You're too cool for the scene, are you serious? 

Well, new friends come and go, are you serious? 

Abbey, what happened? 

Wake up your napping 

You don't go to the shows, are you serious? 

New hair, different clothes, are you serious? 

Your tattoos, covered up, are you serious? 

Abbey, what happened? 

You were my best friend. 

So while you're on your way to your new job in the city 

It's easy to see that you still miss the way it was 

And you don't like rock and roll, are you serious? 

You're too cool for the scene, are you serious? 

Well, new friends come and go, are you serious? 

Abbey, what happened? 

Wake up your napping. 

You don't go to the shows, are you serious? 

New hair, different clothes, are you serious? 

Your tattoos, covered up, are you serious? 

Abbey, what happened? 

You were my best friend. 

You don't like rock and roll 

You're too cool for the scene 

Well, new friends come and go 

Abbey, what happened? 

Wake up your napping 

You don't go to the shows, are you serious? 

New hair, different clothes, are you serious? 

Your tattoos, covered up, are you serious? 

Abbey, what happened? 

You were my best friend. 

Good gracious, Abbey, so good to see ya. 

She walks off laughing, just like she used to.
