tasmania

pond

ain't you clever to be loaded

pursed lips exploded

i heard a click and noted

i froze and floated

between checking how my gums eroded

you didn't look like you were joking

when you said you're into choking

well i guess if we're not into smoking

then you gotta get your kicks

i gave what i had to give

with 48 hours in tel-aviv

seems these kids just wanna live and let live

so take my love and get your kicks with it

i might go shack up in tasmania

before the ozone goes

and paradise burns in australia

who knows?

good luck with the service

i know you don't deserve this

by the time you've heard this

i'll be far

far

just another antipodean

but to americans

i'm an alien

dyed his hair again

how could i know where i've been

when i don't know who i am?

i might go shack up in tasmania

before the ozone goes

and paradise burns in australia

who knows?

i want to breathe

i want to breathe real air again

i wanna go back

i wanna go back

i left my phone in sydney

all the stress outdid me

should i be worried 'bout my kidney?

or worried about war?
