Lyrics
Find another songI've seen gypsies who made it all the way
And kept going, kept rolling with nowhere to go
Nowhere to go.
As far as I've seen, from the bush
In the wilderness, to every known city
I've been to Saudi Arabia, dug up Calcutta
So I went to Mozambique, Istanbul, Rio, Rome
Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Taiwan, Great Britain
Belfast, to the desert, Spain
Some little bitty island in the middle of the Ṗacific
All the way back home, to my town
To my town
********, complaining, yet some people who ain't got **** to eat
********, moaning, so many people you know what they got
What are we doing?
We're sitting on a ruin
What are we doing?
We're sitting on a ruin
As far as I've seen, from the bush
In the wilderness, to every known city
I've been to Saudi Arabia, dug up Calcutta
So I went to Mozambique, Istanbul, Rio, Rome
Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Taiwan, Great Britain
Belfast, to the desert, Spain
Some little bitty island in the middle of the Ṗacific
All the way back home, to my town
To my town
********, complaining, yet some people who ain't got **** to eat
********, moaning, so many people you know what they got
What are we doing?
We're sitting on a ruin
What are we doing?
We're sitting on a ruin
What are we doing?
We're sitting on a ruin
What are we doing?
We're sitting on a ruin
