Seoul searching
If you're lost and feeling low,
There is one thing that you should know,
Circumnavigate this earth,
Explore its every width and girth,
You'll find yourself,
Yes, you'll find yourself?
In outback Australia,
You're no longer a failure,
Aboriginal tracking cant be that hard,
I once tracked a squirrel in my back yard,
You've learnt the way of the ancient hunters,
Escaped from all those 'gap year' punters,
Finally you found it, your centre, your core,
You feel at one, this time you're sure.
What's the best thing about your brand-new lifestyle?
You always know you can pick up and dial,
While you're stalking roos, possums and crocs,
Their piling a pylon on top that red rock.
"No its not red anymore its Orange you see,
The Abo's sold it for fifty p,
We told them in Britain they'd live like kings and queens,
Just dig straight down, you'll find Milton Keynes."
In Malaysia on an unbeaten track,
You'll find love inside your backpack,
Tall, dark and completely waterproof,
Don't get upset if he seems aloof,
Sleep with him every night,
Keeps you warm, holds you tight,
Then one day you see something quite appalling,
Your sleeping bag's eloped with your tarpaulin.
Sat in a bar in Santiago
With a local who says his name's Iago
A public school girl who's name is Margo
Two funny looking guys who remind you of that movie, you know the one,
with all the snow and murdering?
Discuss the future of planet earth,
Toast beers to spiritual rebirth,
Tomorrow we'll take our souls to the karma-wash,
Margo will see a beggar, oh I mean street dweller, and scream "Oh
Gosh!"
"Here have some dosh, but just don't touch me I'm posh!"
And we'll take our dogma's for a walk on the beach,
The beach that has a perimeter fence to keep it out of reach,
Our hair is bleached, we like to preach, and above all teach
English as a foreign language because "I can't be expected to learn
them all!",
I know how to call "more beer!"
In Africa, Malaysia and Tanzania
I can say "got any Marijuana?
In Greece, China and Botswana
I can say "can I score some charlie?"
In Thailand, Columbia and even Bali.
So if you're lost and feeling low,
There is one thing that you should know,
Circumnavigate this earth
Explore its every width and girth
Youll find yourself
Yes, you'll find yourself?
