Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk) by The Offspring

"Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk)" is a song by American punk rock band The Offspring. It is featured as the sixth track on the band's ninth studio album Days Go By (2012) and was released as the first single outside the USA, Japan and Canada on April 30. The single cover for the song features the band's Fire Skull mascot, which is the first time it has been used since 2005's Greatest Hits. The song and its video satirizes the mainstream pop music industry. It received polarized reviews from fans and critics, with negative reviewers panning the lyrics and music, while the positive reviews noted its intended satire and compared it to The Offspring's earlier song "Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)". The Offspring commented that they wanted to write a light-hearted joke song as a relief from dealing with more darker themes on Days Go By.
