More prophetic music?

Red Hot Chili Peppers, 1999


Psychic spies from China try to steal your mind's elation
And little girls from Sweden dream of silver screen quotation
And if you want these kind of dreams it's Californication

And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar, they're just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world from Californication

Sicker than the rest, there is no test, but this is what you're craving

No act of God can save those who don't want to be saved.
