I guess it's fair to say that it attempts to express truth, but I think analyzing the truth that Jenkins is putting forth would be a more interesting interpretation of the song. What is he saying? To tell you the truth, I'm not sure--I read he's a schizo anyway, does he know what he is saying? He's the most amazing artist I've ever encountered, but really complex. From the last verse of the song, I gather he's giving a social commentary on how children's minds are imprinted by a "californication" for lack of a better term (thanx Chili Peppers). I think Hollywood represents American culture, and the song represents how corrupt the products are of this culture.
