Keep believing you soon will earn your turn to flash in the pan |
|
It's deceiving 'cause nothing kills like this metropolis can |
|
Everywhere there's blind ambition |
|
Dog eat dog and screw you |
|
You do unto others and they do unto you |
|
Everyday you fight taxicabs and traffic, permanent frowns |
|
Lay awake at night wondering if you hear burglary sounds |
|
Think it's time to make my exit |
|
Kiss all this goodbye and |
|
Catch the next flight south connecting to my island life |
|
Look at me I'm a refugee from the island life |
|
I belong where the shade is palm and the mango's ripe |
|
I'll do all my swinging in some hammock by a turquoise sea |
|
For free |
|
Guess it must be clear I do not belong in this cityscape |
|
I am not from here and I do intend to make my escape |
|
Take me back to waterfalls in volcanic canyons |
|
Where coconuts and orchids are my sole companions |
|
Look at me I'm a refugee from the island life |
|
I belong where the shade is palm and the mango's ripe |
|
How inviting it would make always killing time if you |
|
Came too |
|
Can't you see we're just refugees from the island life |
|
We belong where the shade is palm and the mango's ripe |
|
We'll do all our swinging in some hammock by a turquoise sea |
|
For free |
