Lyrics
This is a tired old world I want News from elsewhere Good news Bad news On picture-postcards This is a blind spot This is an empty lot I need a radio I need a hilltop I want my news from elsewhere
It is a mighty long way from Here to elsewhere Uphill Downhill Wish I had a Fourwheel-drive Wish I was a contender But you are never standing By the roadside You are never waving at me I would be rather happy here If I could tell you where I will be Passing by With a smile
T' is a funny idea that I should Be from somewhere Isn't it obvious That I have never Never ever been there I'm on the look-out I don't belong here It would be wonderfull If I was wrong I would be rather happy here If I could tell you where I will be Passing by With a smile
(Spoken words:) In the wooden shed he found a piece of cardboard on which the previous Occupant had written: "how can I please myself when I have no self to Please?³ "sorry, young man³ -thought burroughs- "i think you are Kidding yourself. as long as you talk to yourself, you have a self. the Self is a pimping, blackmailing chauffeur who gets you from here to There on word lines.³
I would be rather happy here If I could tell you where I will be Passing by With a smile With a smile Yeah
