Lyrics

He asked me "so where have you been?"
Let me think, now let me see
I was stood once where hitler's feet
Had stood when he made his speech in nuremberg in '38
When he tried to build the perfect race
He said "black men ain't gonna run, along side our perfect son's"

There's dallas too, the library
The place they ended kennedy
We stood were oswald took his shot
In my opinion there's a bigger plot
Costner's back and to the left, the picket fence, the better bet
Paris came and summer went, the tunnel's now a flower bed

The famous turf that made jeff hurst
The vodka stops to quench my thirst
The golden gate stroke alcatraz, the fat man failed to get us passes
Jimmy's corner in "raging bull", de niro's jokes and bottle pills
Elvis tales from mr woodward
Any richard burton, if you could

The tourists stare at tourist stops
One more picture one more god
Another top up for a change, it makes you think, it makes you sane
Talking more about yourself, there's a mirror to have a check
Cheques are always passing through some depart, but a lot come too

Restaurant talk or pick your teeth
Bite your tongue or chew your meat
Sleep or drink or drink to sleep
And one more week and we will meet
We'll talk of what we haven't done
Since we departed back a month
We argue why we have to shout
All in all it's nice to be out
