Let's break down the carousel

keep ridin' alone

you sparkling world champions

beware of the sun. 

Dusty rags may suit me better

your boats don't need a flag

I jump on my wrong trains

and wave you goodbye. 

My friends are all over

there's no need to hide 

are climbing grass pillows

with colour glassed eyes. 

I've got a monkey

named Jenny McGee 

she makes out her whisky

from coconut trees. 

There's a crash

in half the highway 

a jet plane landed wrong

some busy godfather was hurring for lunch.

People come they shoot and scream 

the truck man is in jail 

my monkey takes pictures 

she knows where's the blame.

The night gently shelters

weak is the door

on the next ship to India

there's one person more. 

The clean lazy lady

has buned all her dreams 

and makes up too slowly

she's not good for me.

With ivory branches

I play lion skin drums

l'm a lucky musician 

I love all my songs.
