Nor the Mercedes
Nor all the money worldwide
will bring happiness
will bring happiness
tied up in a doggy bag
take my leftovers
take my leftovers
said I to the beggarman
people rushing by
People rushing by
Hit us with their sharp elbows,
Knock down old ladies.
knock down old ladies
the conquerors loudly cry
we pillage later
We pillage later,
Now, we just rape and torture.
We're only soldiers.
We're only soldiers.
in a country that's not ours
how i long for home
How I long for home
Sitting out in the desert
No food or water.
No food or water.
I shall live only on dreams.
my phone is ringing.
My phone is ringing,
I get up to answer it.
Damn, a wrong number!
Damn, a wrong number!
Who are these nuts anyway?
Do they need glasses?
Do they need glasses?
How can they not see with eyes
wide open and clear!
Wide open and clear!
The highway lying ahead.
I'm free as a bird.
I'm free as a bird
on a wire swinging round
yoyo - walk the dog
yoyo-walk the dog
circle the world with the string
spin now like a top.
Spin now like a top;
Dizzy with your own free glee
'Til you, tired, drop.
'Til you, tired, drop.
Drop, drop, wasted and weary.
Like snowflakes melting.
Like snowflakes melting,
My heart unburdened itself.
I had a good cry.
I had a good cry.
My heart feels light, unburdened.
A new horizon.
A new horizon
Bounded by palm trees and sea,
A ship at anchor.
